What We Do To Support Our Mission

• We help our members connect with others to increase contacts, leads, and sales through mixers and monthly meetings.
  

• Our partnership with SCORE gives you the tools to help your business grow and succeed.
  

• Through The Acorn monthly newsletter, we provide flyer insertion or display advertising.
  

• We sponsor the Connoisseur’s Marketplace Art and Wine Festival, which highlights the best of Menlo Park and attracts people from all over the Bay Area and beyond.
  

• We believe education is an important business tool. For that reason, each year we support education through the award of scholarships or donations to community programs.

Our Goals

• Our ongoing goal is to consistently increase our membership so that we have a strong and unified business voice in our community.
  

• Find creative solutions to our parking and traffic challenges.
  

• Partner with the City to construct and implement an Economic Development Program.
  

• Start early with local schools by fostering a business mentoring program where we can encourage and inspire the next workforce generation.

The Future

• The Chamber is always looking for new ways to assist our members. Today's web technology is making it easier for us to communicate with our members, coordinate meetings and refer customer traffic to our members businesses.  As we move into the future we will continue to focus on the promotion of our members and the tangible values of Chamber membership.
