INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES

Partners in Trust Program
Within the Chamber’s membership, a select group of members participate in the Partners in Trust program, comprised of members that have the ability and desire to invest in the Chamber beyond the standard membership dues to help us build the strongest, most collaborative and successful business community in the region. Many of the Chamber’s accomplishments on behalf of all members would not be possible without the additional support provided by this elite and civic-minded group of businesses.
"The Frederick County Chamber has given me so many wonderful opportunities! Throughout the 20+ years I have been a member I’ve used my membership to meet businesses to connect and grow my company as well as to participate in the many programs they have available like Leadership Frederick County (LFC). I enjoy volunteering as a Chamber Ambassador and helping newer members learn about resources that will help their company flourish. For me, it has been an honor and privilege to be a part of the Frederick County Chamber community." - Ellen Keyser, Owner, EKDesigns.com
