Membership is the heart of all Chambers of Commerce. The financial support as well as volunteerism to manage and assist with business programs is only possible through our members.

Join the Louisiana Chamber of the Year  to let us promote your business!

While it is true that members receive more benefits from the Chamber if they are a volunteer or attend programs, it is also important to point out that even if a member never walks through the door of the chamber or attends an event, they still benefit greatly from membership because of the community support, economic development, transportation and legislative issues addressed by your Chamber on a daily basis. It is our goal to give back to our members as much as possible through providing networking opportunities, educational seminars and a voice for business throughout the region.

If you are not a member of the East St. Tammany Chamber of Commerce, We look forward to adding your business to our personalized referral service. Check out the rest of our website to see what your Chamber is hosting and join us to help your business prosper in our region.

Don't just take our word for it.. read the testimonials from Members!

2009-2010 Business Connection - Member Directory & Buyer's Guide

“Personally, I cannot live without my Chamber Directory.  After Katrina, it was absolutely essential and I have continued to use it very frequently.  It has also been very helpful when I'm trying to refer a client to someone for products or services.”
     -Terry King, Thrivent Financial for Lutherans

“I love the Business Connection Directory. The smaller size turns out to be so convenient to leave a copy in the car. When we go shopping for one thing, something always comes up that we need something else so we take a quick look at the copy in the car so we can Always Buy Chamber! Perfect size really. At home or the office, the internet makes a member search easy, but on the road the car copy is the best search engine.

BTW I just checked the Directory again - my realtor, trash hauler, veterinarian, gas, electric, optometrist, car dealers where we made our last several car purchases, television and internet, bank, home telephone, most of our favorite restaurants, plumber, electrician, favorite charities, grocery, office supplies, favorite elected officials (some not so much), school, jeweler, orthodontist, hospital - are members of the Chamber. We really are connected!”
     -Carlos Yingst, Lockheed Martin, Nasa

“I looked through the directory last night for ideas for our upcoming after hours. Being new to the Chamber I didn't know who all were members. I found the book to be helpful. I have some ideas of companies to partner with. The book is a wonderful resource! Thanks!” 
     -Michele Tierney, Resource Bank

“As an agency treating people with substance abuse issues, it is imperative that we collaborate with various community businesses and organizations. The East St. Tammany Chamber Connection Directory has been invaluable to us when needing to connect immediately to the community. This tool is yet another vital component of our resource arsenal which helps us assist our clients who are often in life altering, or even life threatening situations.”      
     -David Kiviaho, Truth 180 Youth Programs

“I love the new format for the Chamber Connection, I carry one in each car and will always use it when I go out to pick up anything so I can find the Chamber member that has what I need.  I had my windows done by Fish Window Cleaning  because they were in the Book!”
