The Partnership
The Chamber’s five-year initiative for 2024-2028, known as “The Partnership: Working Together, Achieving More," is a community and business development strategy where the Board of Directors and teams of business leaders focus on making strides in three critical areas: business and industry-driven workforce development and recruitment, pro-business and industry advocacy and community betterment and business and industry growth and retention.
The plan seamlessly builds upon the accomplishments of our preceding five-year initiative, “The Partnership: Today, Tomorrow, Together." It focused on residential development, regional partnerships and community image, business and industry-driven talent development and recruitment and business and industry partnerships with education.

- Director of Investor Relations will actively engage with you to ensure we are delivering your ROI

Investor History
The Decatur Morgan County Chamber of Commerce began its first community and business development strategy in 1992, when the Chamber and several area businesses and industries made an investment into the future of Morgan County and Decatur in a program called “The Cornerstone Partnership." Investors made a three-year financial commitment to actively create a highly-skilled available workforce, address public policy issues and improve the city to attract new industries and commercial development.
Over the past 20 years, our initiatives have been successful because of the dedicated investors who have given financial support above their annual dues. If you are ready to make a bigger impact on the community and would like to know more about the program, contact Judy Brown at (256) 353-5312 or by email,
