Community and Giving

  • Focus on the welfare and improving the quality of life in the local community by actively engaging our members and their resources on charitable initiatives. This includes active ongoing support of selected area charities as one of the Chamber’s key pillars.
  • Promoting programs that educate and/or train students and existing workers to the benefits of the Pineville competitive enterprise system and prepare them for careers/ career growth
  • We believe charity and giving isn’t a once a year activity, but rather an integral part of who we are.  The Chamber has chosen to focus our resources primarily on two charities that meaningfully impact the challenges within Pineville, the SLYP area and Charlotte.

    • Pineville Neighbors Place gives a hand up to working poor, whether the need is food, help with shelter, utilities assistance, school supplies.  This charity defines compassion and that is why we support it. www.pinevilleneighbors.org
    • Hope Soccer Ministries builds character and leadership in our youth through the combination of soccer and faith. We love it that we can share the truth of the Bible on a place like the soccer field, using it as a vehicle to prepare our youth for their futures.  Therefore, we are excited to tell people in our community about Jesus through our youth soccer teams!

Collaboration

  • Working with the town in communicating the Chamber Members’ challenges, needs and concerns relative to ongoing business and growth opportunities
  • Creating a better understanding and appreciation of the importance of businesses and preserving the capitalist system and discovering and correcting unnecessary obstacles that prevent the advancement of business
