No. The Chamber is a not-for-profit, 501(c) 6, organization and derives its income from membership dues, donations and sponsorships.
There a number of ways the Chamber adds to the quality of life we all enjoy. The area in which we are most active is bringing people into Edgewood through the promotion and staging of events. It is a fact that when people come into the community for an event they spend dollars with the local business community. Those tax dollars are put to work by our Town government to improve Edgewood’s quality of life.
