What does the Chamber do?
OUR MISSION
To support our membership through cooperative economic development and community service
The Homer Chamber of Commerce & Visitor Center has been the voice of business in the Greater Homer Area since 1948. We harness the energy of our members, champion big ideas, and collectively, we move forward sensible solutions for the business world. We are advocates on behalf of the business community at all levels of government. Despite common misperceptions, the Chamber of Commerce is not a bank or a government organization. We are a not-for-profit, membership-driven organization.
Is the chamber for me? Do you believe that a vibrant business community is the foundation of a strong place in which to work and thrive? Then yes! All are welcome - there is something for everyone
