The Greater Aurora Chamber of Commerce is a catalyst ...a common vehicle through which the enlightened mutual interests of all segments of the business community work together for the common good of the total community. A better community means better business. That’s why we do what we do. Which brings us back to that original question, what do we do? There is, in the final analysis, one reason for the Chamber of Commerce to exist: To do whatever is necessary to keep this area’s economic condition such that people will be willing to invest their resources to make a profit.

In any community, it is from the profitable operation of business that all other benefits are derived. Only by succeeding in this fundamental goal can we provide the jobs and produce the wealth to finance all of the governmental, civic, cultural and charitable needs that our community is faced with everyday. We do many diverse things to accomplish that primary goal.

The offices of the Greater Aurora Chamber of Commerce are located on Galena Boulevard at the Fox River. Here, the Chamber staff executes and administers all Chamber programs and activities in conjunction with various committees comprised of Chamber members.

Each year, the Board of Directors approves the organization’s program of work, which highlights priority action areas for the coming year. Where does the money come from to support an office, buy the supplies, conduct the programs, pay the staff? From the membership. Most of the members of the Chamber are retailers, manufacturers, professional individuals, colleges, etc. We have a dues structure and categories based on size, ability to invest and number of employees. Our members support the Chamber’s programs every year and believe in what is being accomplished.

The major benefit of membership in the Greater Aurora Chamber of Commerce is that the Chamber acts as the unified voice of nearly 1,000 area businesses. We maintain our vitality because our members want to get involved in those matters that concern the economic well being of the area
