            Ambassador Relations

              Our Ambassadors Program

              Ambassadors perform a wide variety of duties in the Oakland African-American Chamber, but their main function is to help promote the Chamber, welcome new Members to the Chamber, and make Chamber events successful and enjoyable for everyone. In addition, Ambassadors facilitate member-to-member communication, support and encourage member engagement, and build the brand, knowledge, and familiarity of the Oakland African-American Chamber in the local business community and beyond.  

              The benefits of being an Oakland African-American Chamber of Commerce Ambassador is access to Chamber members, complimentary access to most Chamber events and networking opportunities, insight and perspective into the local Oakland business community, and a fun way to engage with local businesses.
