Retta Livengood, President of Greenfield Chamber of Commerce, spoke to Kiwanis about the Chamber. She told that the Chamber is dedicated to their mission of “Partnering for Prosperity”. The traditional role of a Chamber of Commerce was to be the voice of business. Presently, our Chamber (founded in 1951) has evolved beyond that role to work towards broader community goals. Once they concentrated on building relationships with other businesses, but now include building relationships within the community. The focus is on the measurable impact a Chamber can have not only on members but also on the community.
The Chamber advocates for businesses and presents opportunities for members to connect with potential customers through a variety of Chamber events. They plan to be a source for educational and business seminars and to enhance the talents and resources of members. They strive to improve economic vitality and quality of life for Greenfield, Hancock County and the surrounding areas.
