Kearney Chamber Ambassadors Empower Business Excellence!

Empower Business Excellence

The Ambassador Committee
Ambassadors are the face and voice of the Chamber, welcoming new members, building relationships and elevating local businesses. As an Ambassador, you’ll help foster an environment where businesses thrive through engagement, support and visibility. This committee is ideal for those who love connecting people and championing growth.


Ambassadors meet on the second Tuesday of each month at noon at a local member restaurant (the location will be determined prior to each meeting). 

If you are interested in becoming a Chamber Ambassador contact the Chamber office at 816.628.4229 or email Stacie@KearneyChamber.org. We'd love to have you join us.
