Fulton County Chamber of Commerce changes

Our businesses are experiencing a range of challenges associated with COVID-19, from employee bandwidth to time constraints - all within our rapidly changing health environment. We are postponing or canceling networking events scheduled for the next few weeks. These include:

 

  • Business After Hours at Smith Sawyer Smith (March 19th)
  • Legislative Breakfast (March 21st)
  • FUEL’s Adulting 101 (April 14th)
  • Business After Hours at Culligan (April 23rd)
  • 2020 Annual Community Gala (April 25th)

We plan to reschedule the gala at a later date, to be determined. We will email an updated invitation and continue ticket sales once rescheduled.

 

The Chamber will remain open for business. However, we encourage you to call ahead if you wish to visit us or order Chamber Dollars.

 

Public health experts advise anyone who is most vulnerable to complications from COVID-19 to follow the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommendations to stay home as much as possible and avoid large gatherings. Please follow CDC recommended respiratory etiquette and safe hand washing practices and stay home if you feel ill.

 

As testing becomes more available and results come in, public health experts say it is possible there will be news of more cases in the state and region. To help support the public health response, we will continue to monitor the changing news of our region and keep you up to date on new developments.

 

President Trump has allocated $50 billion to the Small Business Administration (SBA) for Economic Injury Disaster Loans. For Hoosiers to gain access to this funding, we need to collect small business economic impact data from every county in Indiana so that Governor Holcomb can declare an economic injury disaster. If your business has, or you anticipate will, be impacted by COVID-19, please complete this form at your earliest convenience.

 

We are working diligently to gain access to this funding and would greatly appreciate your help.

 

Stay informed:

 

As always, we will continue to encourage shopping locally. You can purchase gift cards to your favorite restaurants and shops, order carry-out, and of course call us to order Chamber Dollars to be used at a later time.

 

Thank you for supporting our community through investment in the Chamber,

 

Jillian Kreamer
