The Valley Chamber Business Plan 2009  

“Catalyst for a Vibrant Sustainable Economy”

The Greater Spokane Valley Chamber of Commerce is a member-driven and professionally staffed nonprofit association of business people committed to improving the economic climate and
the quality of life in the Spokane Valley and surrounding region.  The Greater Spokane Valley Chamber of Commerce was organized on May 25, 1921 in Green Acres by a group of business leaders who saw the need for an organization to represent business interests and to coordinate community events in the Spokane Valley.
 

The Chamber incorporated as an IRC 501(c)(6) business league.  It serves businesses and organizations as members in the cities of Spokane Valley, Millwood and Liberty Lake and communities in eastern Spokane County.  Membership is not limited to the geographic area of the Spokane Valley and is recommended for any business or organization that desires a business presence in the Spokane Valley.  Membership is open to any business, nonprofit organization or retired individual.

Vision

The Greater Spokane Valley Chamber of Commerce will be the unifying business force dedicated to community vitality and economic prosperity.
