Membership

The Chamber offers several volunteer opportunities for individuals of member companies to participate in. The opportunities include:

• Chamber Ambassadors (See below)
• YPN South Bend Ambassadors (Contact YPN Liaison Amanda Glassen)

Chamber Ambassadors

Ambassadors support the Chamber's mission by helping to grow and maintain a strong membership base, through the innovation and implementation of activities that support membership recruitment, engagement and retention. Ambassadors are volunteers who interact with fellow Chamber members to provide information and answer questions about the Chamber, and serve as an additional resource and communication link between the Chamber and its members.
