Meet the premier volunteers who power your Chamber of Commerce

The Shawnee Forward Ambassador Committee serves to assist with the public relations of the organization. Ambassadors assist at Shawnee Forward events and programs and help promote the organization to prospective investors and the community. Additionally, Ambassadors assist Shawnee Forward in connecting with new and existing investors so that they maximize their use of our programs and other benefits and remain engaged with the organization.

Ambassadors actively promote Shawnee Forward to the business community and connect investors with others in the community who can help them build and grow their business. The committee also serves and supports Shawnee Forward while supporting the mission: To enhance economic growth in our community.

Ambassadors engage with Shawnee Forward members and potential members to ensure that our community understands our purpose, our work, and our benefits.

We put on Ribbon Cuttings, attend Grand Openings, and make contact with our members in an effort to raise awareness.

Serving on the Ambassador committee is a great way to support Shawnee Forward and the local business community. Additionally, you’ll see a number of benefits by being an Ambassador, including:

• Opportunity for high-visibility networking

• Form close ties with other committee members and Board of Directors members
