Celebrate Support Your Local Chamber of Commerce Day on Oct. 15, 2025

Every October, communities take a day to recognize the important work chambers of commerce do to strengthen local economies, support small businesses and create opportunities for growth. This year, Support Your Local Chamber of Commerce Day is Wednesday, October 15, 2025. It is the perfect opportunity to highlight the positive impact chambers make.

To help you celebrate, we have launched a new Support Your Local Chamber Day resource page. Here you’ll find tools and ideas you can use to spread the word, including ready-made social media graphics, sample posts, tips for engaging your members or guidance on generating local media attention.

Chambers of commerce are more than membership organizations. They are champions for businesses of all sizes, conveners of community leaders and advocates for policies that drive prosperity. Support Your Local Chamber of Commerce Day is a reminder to:

• Celebrate your chamber’s contributions to your community.
• Recognize the members and volunteers who make the work possible.
• Share stories that highlight the chamber’s role in building a strong local economy.

Engage Your Members

Support Your Local Chamber of Commerce Day is also an opportunity to elevate the voices of your members. Encourage businesses to share their “why” — why they support the chamber, why membership matters to them and what they gain from being part of your network.

When members tell their own stories, it shows the real impact of chamber involvement. A testimonial from a small business owner, a story of collaboration between members or a reflection on the chamber’s role in their success can be more powerful than any marketing message. These authentic stories help others see the value of chamber support and inspire new connections.

How To Get Involved

• Share on social media: Download graphics and sample posts from our resource page.
• Highlight your members: Encourage members to share their own stories about the value of chamber membership.
• Host an event or open house: Use the day to bring people together and showcase your chamber’s work.
• Engage community leaders: Submit a request from local government for a proclamation or to share messages of support.
• Tag @ACCEHQ for a chance to have your content shared and use #SupportYourLocalChamberofCommerceDay and #ChamberStrong.
