Community engagement and empowerment are key factors for any group to become stronger and more successful. In cooperation with the residents of Huntington, NY, the Huntington Township Chamber of Commerce does exactly that by uniting community members, businesses, not-for-profits, and other local organizations for local events, access to resources, and opportunities to grow.

Here are the top three ways they promote community engagement:

  • Community Events & Listings: Their website’s calendar allows for the promotion of community events to strengthen local businesses looking for more customers and help eager young professionals who are looking to network with others and improve their work skills. Their listings of local restaurants and hotels help bring more money to the local economy while providing a way for residents and visitors to find new and exciting ways to experience Huntington. Promoting community engagement makes everyone feel like a stakeholder, strengthening community ties.
  • community engagementSupporting Local Business: Chamber members include a wide variety of local businesses, from contractors to graphic designers. Membership gives them access to new networking opportunities, ways to market their products and services, and even the ability to post job openings. Supporting job seekers and local businesses contributes to economic development, making for a more prosperous community today and beyond.
  • Education & Training: Education and training for business owners and professionals gives them more of the tools they need to succeed. A dedicated Education Committee manages events to provide these tools to interested members, and networking events are attended by professionals, entrepreneurs, and business owners from a wide variety of fields for a range of viewpoints and ideas. Successful individuals make for a successful community, especially when those individuals have a forum to share what they’ve learned along the way.
