The Greater Northampton Chamber of Commerce

 

Forging Strong Business Ties, Fostering Community Success

The Greater Northampton Chamber of Commerce (GNCC) is a member-supported, nonprofit organization that creates meaningful connections and facilitates business learning opportunities. Through a shared vision for a thriving economy and community, our members, volunteers, and staff are dedicated to the community where we live and do business.

  • "It is so important to support one another as a community and that is what the Chamber is all about."

    – Amanda Shafii, Owner of CopyCat

  • “The Chamber is a magical place, filled with friendship, warmth, and real encouragement and engagement."

    – Beth Pellettieri

  • “I participate in the netWORK events because they offer a unique opportunity to build relationships through collaborative problem-solving. Working together on projects allows me to connect with others on a deeper level while making a positive impact on our community.”

    – Lydia Berry, ReVision Energy

  • “Getting together for netWORK events has a whole different vibe — one that is uniquely fresh, fun, and rewarding. It may not look like a typical networking event, and that's the beauty of it, too: the vibe feels casual, candid, and inherently genuine. It's hard not to feel inspired by the greater magic of collective community-building that comes from each of our small contributions. I find that the netWORK experience sparks light spirits, a mental reset, and a full heart.”

    – Curtiss Hey, SkyTemple

  • “Accepting the Northampton Gift Card at Strada is my favorite benefit of investing in the GNCC. We appreciate that the Northampton Gift Card keeps money in our community, and it's always a pleasure to be a part of the celebration.”

    – Anna Bowen, Owner of Strada Shoes

  • “Connections I made through the Nonprofit Roundtable program a few years back have resulted in ongoing relationships with several other nonprofit directors where we've been able to call each other for advice and assistance - everything ranging from operational questions to a search for space or a suggestion on how to approach a challenge.”

    – Karen Foster, Executive Director of All Out Adventures

  • “Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for volunteering at Manna Community Kitchen! Together you helped feed 120 people a healthy, nourishing meal! It was so nice meeting all of you and getting to know more about the great things you are doing for Northampton. We can't wait to work or netWORK with you again!”

    – Kaitlyn Ferrari, Manna Community Kitchen

  • “Thank you so much for all the work you do in our community. You’re really making a difference.”

    – Aimee Salmon, Owner of Positively Africana

  • “Becoming a member of the Northampton Chamber was one of the very first business decisions that I made back in 2000. It has proven to be a fantastic benefit to my business as well as to me personally as I now have countless supportive friends here in the valley.”

    – Nanci Newton, Owner of The Healing ZONE Therapeutic Massage

The Greater

Northampton Gift Card

The Greater Northampton Gift Card is not just another gift card.

It’s treating someone to a delicious meal or a really great spa day, even from miles away. It’s a coffee break (or five!) for the students in your life during the peak of finals. It’s a housewarming gift that doesn’t end up in the closet for years unnoticed. It’s a simple way to say Thanks, Great Job, Happy Birthday, and so much more.
