The West Alabama Chamber is seeking volunteers to join its Ambassador Program, and applications are open through November 30. Representing businesses throughout West Alabama, Ambassadors help strengthen relationships, welcome and engage Chamber members, and connect the local business community with valuable opportunities. Through their outreach and involvement, they play an important role in enhancing the member experience and supporting the Chamber’s continued growth.

According to the press release, “Ambassadors serve as 'the face of The Chamber,' helping to foster connections among members and promote The Chamber’s events and initiatives. They also assist in recruiting new members, retaining existing members, and ensuring members maximize their benefits.”

“A strong business community is built on relationships, and our ambassadors play an important role in making those connections happen,” said Jonna Martin, Alabama Credit Union Regional Branch Director and the ‘26 Co-Chair of the Ambassador Program.  “By bringing business professionals together, welcoming new members, and helping businesses get the most out of their Chamber membership, ambassadors strengthen the network of support that makes West Alabama thrive.”

Serving as a Chamber Ambassador offers valuable opportunities for professional growth, networking, and development. Ambassadors also increase visibility for their business, build confidence, strengthen sales opportunities, expand community connections, and establish a great presence throughout West Alabama.

“The professionals who benefit the most from the Ambassador Program are in sales and community engagement roles, as well as small business owners and team members, and anyone who wants to sharpen their business networking skills,” says Megan York of Alabama Public Radio, the ‘26 Chair of the Ambassador Program.
