Basket Raffle
The South West Communities Chamber of Commerce is unable to host its annual Holiday Luncheon this year, but still plans on making spirits bright this season.
An online fundraiser will take place in conjunction with the virtual annual meeting on Dec. 8. Not only will the chamber be giving away gift baskets like it normally does at the annual holiday luncheon, but new board members, as well as returning board members for the 2021 year, will be announced.
In its mission to help give back to the community, the chamber will also be donating fifty percent of proceeds to its Donation Drive non-profit members. Help non-profits in need and the chamber of commerce spread holiday joy by purchasing a $20 ticket, sponsoring the event or donating directly to one of your favorite non-profits.
