#StayStrongComoxValley

April 3, 2020

COMOX VALLEY – The Comox Valley Chamber is working with the business community to help keep our community vibrant and make sure we remain connected – even as many of us work from home.

We know collaboration and connection are more important than ever right now, and we are committed to keeping up to date on what’s happening nationally (Canadian Chamber), provincially (BC Chamber), and locally through our municipal leaders. We are also working with our colleagues the Downtown Courtenay BIA, Comox by the Sea and our Economic Development office to ensure information is being provided to our business community.

Dianne Hawkins is CEO of the Comox Valley Chamber

It’s NOT business as usual but we are touched by the innovative and creative ways our business community is rallying together. From karma drops organized by Edible Island to businesses purchasing gift cards for a “not so rainy” day in the (I hope) near future to volunteerism popping up more and more as we work to help others, reminding us that we are in this together.

Now, more than ever, we are here to be your voice, represent local businesses, assist business owners in sustaining their business and to be part of the solution to a robust plan for recovery. Business hasn’t stopped and your Chamber hasn’t either.

Some resources we have set up include our COVID-19 resource page located at comoxvalleychamber.com, where you can also sign up for our newsletter to keep you up to date on current information being released (daily in most instances) by the federal and provincial governments. Take part in our weekly Zoom calls on Thursday mornings from 10:30 – 11:30, you can register for these calls at comoxvalleychamber.com/events. These Zoom calls are focused on hearing your questions and providing answers on income tax, GST, human resources and grants available for business.

We’re here for you, our business community! Email us at dhawkins@comoxvalleychamber.com or call us at 250-334-3234.
