Chamber eNews for June 9, 2020: We Have Work to Do
A statement from the Board of Directors of the Windsor Chamber of Commerce:
The Windsor Chamber of Commerce stands with the black community for justice and against racism and brutality. As an organization dedicated to economic empowerment, we take the position that no economy can reach its potential so long as a great many of its participants are prevented by structures of power from reaching their full potential.
One of the things that makes Windsor so special is that it’s a place of black entrepreneurship. We pledge to increase our efforts to reach, nurture, and cultivate black- and minority-owned businesses, and to make sure our education and development opportunities reach these entrepreneurs. We will improve black representation in the Chamber’s membership, in Chamber activities, and on our Board of Directors. And as a civic organization, we will support efforts in our town focused on justice and harmony.
Windsor has much to be proud of as a diverse, integrated, and loving community, but much work remains to be done. The Chamber of Commerce stands ready to support that work.
