Call for Volunteers
The Saint John Region Chamber of Commerce thrives on the energy of its members. By working with a committee, task force, or member forum, you have direct input to the policies that affect how The Chamber serves its members, what positions it puts forward to government, and how it serves the community. Committee involvement also gives members the opportunity to meet other Chamber members working in the same industry or with coinciding interests. Your Chamber membership opens the door to opportunity and a chance to make a difference.
