Supporting and Strengthening Local Businesses in Wayne County
The IMPACT Committee of the Wayne County Area Chamber of Commerce is a passionate and strategic team dedicated to elevating the local business community. Through targeted initiatives and relationship-building efforts, IMPACT focuses on investing in local businesses, promoting Chamber member benefits, and fostering sustainable growth throughout Wayne County.
The committee’s name, IMPACT, is more than just a label—it’s an acronym that outlines its core mission and values:
Invest in Local Businesses
Market Chamber Member Benefits
Promote Buying Local
Advocate for Business Growth
Connect Members with Resources
Thrive as a Stronger Unit
One of the key ways the Chamber supports “Promoting Buying Local” is through our Wayne County Cash. This program keeps dollars circulating within Wayne County by encouraging residents to shop local and providing businesses with an easy way to participate.
To ensure a dynamic and ever-evolving member experience, the IMPACT Committee holds its meetings at rotating locations across Wayne County.This approach supports our local establishments and provides members with a first-hand look at what’s happening throughout the region. These rotating meetings help:
Foster collaboration across industries
Promote visibility for Chamber members
Encourage new business connections
Committee Chair: Amanda Upchurch
The IMPACT Committee meets on the fourth Tuesday of each month at 12:00 p.m. for lunch Contact Alyssa Roberts at [email protected] for more information
