Our Commitment to Community
At the Chamber, we believe that giving back to our community is at the heart of what we do. Through various philanthropic initiatives, we strive to make a positive impact and support those who make our community vibrant and strong.
NIC Bursary
Education is a powerful tool for personal and community growth. That’s why we are proud to offer our own bursary at North Island College (NIC). Through an endowment, this bursary provides financial support to a deserving student, pursuing studies in the Business school helping them achieve their educational goals and contribute to the community's future.
Annual Gala Contributions
Each year, our highly anticipated Chamber Awards Gala event is not only a celebration of business and community excellence but also a platform for generosity. We are committed to donating a portion of the proceeds to a charitable organization that makes a significant difference in people's lives. This annual contribution, through our online auction, allows us to support important causes and uplift those in need.
2023 Recipient: Comox Valley Food Bank
2022 Recipient: Operation Freedom Paws and Eureka Support Society
Event Donations to Non-Profits
Throughout the year, our events serve as opportunities to give back. At each of these events, we select a different non-profit or charity to support. By doing so, we ensure that a diverse range of causes and organizations benefit from our collective efforts, spreading goodwill and making a meaningful difference across various sectors of our community.

2024 Summer BBQ Recipient: Comox Valley Farmers Market, New Farmer Bursary
