This morning at our First Friday Coffee I couldn't help but to feel an overwhelming amount of appreciation & gratitude to the members making everyone feel welcomed, accepted, encouraged, supported and valued! In the nearly 15 years at the Chamber, I have witnessed so much kindness and grace given to our business community. There is a distinct connection that our members feel WELCOMED being in the room with leaders, entrepreneurs and business owners from around our community - it's an honor to see and I don't take it for granted.

As we look ahead, it is so encouraging to know the future of our Chamber is being led by an amazing group of members - the West St. Louis County Chamber of Commerce is a MEMBERSHIP BASED ORGANIZATION with dedicated professionals promoting and enhancing their business, advancing our community and overall quality of life within our REGION!

We are a STRONG & SMART 500+ membership organization and GROWING! We are west St. Louis county and I am extremely proud of that!

I would love to take this moment and encourage you to get more involved within the West St. Louis County Chamber of Commerce! Maybe that's joining a committee for one of our major events (we need the help), or being an Ambassador, or maybe it's just attending more of our monthly events (like the First Friday Coffee, GMM); whatever it is - it's never too late to get involved and you WILL ALWAYS be welcomed with open arms! And have FUN!! And create more relationships, friendships, business referrals...you get the idea.

Be the reason, and the MEMBER, someone feels welcomed, seen, heard, valued, loved and supported. You will be glad you did.


With Warmest Gratitude,

Lori A. Kelling

President/CEO
