The CelebrateHER initiative — a Chamber program launched in November 2023 in partnership with the Women’s Business League —is coming right up! It’s a growing series focused on uplifting, connecting, and celebrating women in business across the Seacoast. 

The awards luncheon will also serve as the kickoff of a educational series we will be hosting. The educational series will provide women with the tools and resources they need to become a success in their chosen field and perhaps get a little inspiration from these women's stories along the way. We hope you will join us.
