"The Orange Chamber has been a game changer for my business and my overall involvement in the community. It has opened doors for me to be even more involved in the city, it gives me an opportunity to fulfill my mission of being a gateway for other minority and women-owned businesses to do business in the city of Orange, and it has allowed me to meet new people who have become friends. I owe a lot to the Orange Chamber, and I'm thankful that they are so open to trying new things to stay innovative and service our business community."

We’ve been in the area for almost 50 years providing care for seniors, but only recently joined the Orange Chamber of Commerce. What a blessing! The entire team at the chamber are opening doors and helping us make connections. Town & Country is no longer this community’s best kept secret, we are getting our name out there!  As a faith-based non-profit organization, we appreciate you Orange Chamber – for serving as our advocate and a beautiful resource!

I am immensely grateful for the dedication and support they extend to all businesses in Orange.”

"We have been a part of the Orange Chamber since 2014 and have loved every minute of it! We are a small flower shop in Orange and have had the pleasure of working with the Chamber for many events! Not only are the people lovely but the introduction to other Orange businesses has been invaluable. We love our city, our community and our Chamber!"

- Dana and Daniel Rice from The Dizzy Daisy

“I'm originally from Los Angeles, but I moved to Orange County several years ago. Not knowing many people on this side of town was a bit challenging considering I have a printing business. After talking to a good friend who is part of the Orange Chamber of Commerce, I decided to join! I've been with the Chamber of Commerce for a little under a year now and I've got to meet several chamber members at different gatherings, ribbon cutting, events, etc. It's been very nice to meet some of the merchant's, business owners, vendors of the city.  I've met lots of great people over my time here that I would have otherwise never met and it's so nice to see new and familiar faces every now and then. It has been one of the best decisions joining the Orange Chamber of Commerce.”  

- George Hurtado from 24 Seven Services

As one of our longstanding supporters, the Orange Chamber has consistently shown their belief in the power of empowering our youth and building a stronger community together. Their generous donations have allowed us to expand our programs, reach more children, and create a safe haven for them to thrive. The Orange Chamber of Commerce has gone above and beyond to include us in their events, amplify our message, and spread the word about the vital work we do. They have been true champions for our cause and have helped us connect with even more like-minded individuals and organizations."
