With the support from a grant from the City of Arcadia, the Arcadia Chamber has created this program to enrich and grow businesses in our city through Chamber membership, networking, marketing, and promotion. The grant will cover a 1-year Classic Membership (value $280). Being a part of Arcadia Stronger, and utilizing the benefits therein, can help your business thrive!

The Arcadia Chamber has developed the Arcadia Stronger grant program to create and continue the relationships between businesses and the chamber community. Our focus is on businesses with financial and other difficulties so that they can be a part of the Arcadia Chamber membership and have access to chamber programs and benefits as we work together as a community. We foresee this playing a critical role in leading to a healthier business environment for the city of Arcadia and Arcadia Chamber.
