In the heart of the Walla Walla Valley lies a vibrant, caring community, brimming with unique experiences, friendly faces and endless opportunities.

In the midst of a day, do you ever find yourself wondering about the best vegetarian lunch spot nearby, seeking recommendations for local services or craving insights into upcoming events? If so, the Chamber has those answers through the Community Concierge program, a gateway to connecting with your community in meaningful ways.

Imagine spending a few hours at the Chamber, surrounded by a warm and welcoming team, fueled by great coffee, and engaging in lively conversation with a diverse group of individuals. This is the essence of the Community Concierge experience — a blend of camaraderie, service and discovery. Whether you’re sharing your favorite hidden gem of a plant-based dining experience or connecting fellow residents with essential resources, every interaction is an opportunity to spread positivity and foster connections.

“Where is the best burger in College Place?” “Are there any wineries open this week?” “Are there dog-friendly places here?” These examples are a glimpse of the inquiries you might encounter as a Community Concierge. From culinary delights to local attractions, from practical recommendations to cultural insights, every question offers a chance to make a difference in someone’s day.

But the benefits of this program extend far beyond mere information exchanges. Volunteering with the Chamber opens doors to new experiences and meaningful connections. Whether you choose to assist at community events, lend a hand in the Chamber office or participate in educational initiatives such as Exec-2-Education, the possibilities for personal and professional growth are endless.

Exec-2-Education exemplifies the Chamber’s commitment to nurturing the next generation of leaders. By bridging the gap between local businesses and schools, this program empowers students to explore diverse career paths and expand their horizons. As a volunteer, you can inspire young minds, share your insight and contribute to their success and the future of our community.

At its core, the Community Concierge program is a celebration of community spirit and collective empowerment. By joining forces with the Chamber, you become an integral part of a network dedicated to building a brighter future for the Walla Walla Valley. Together, we can create a community where everyone feels welcome, supported and inspired to thrive.

So, if you are ready to embrace the spirit of community, seize the opportunity to become a Community Concierge. Whether you prefer to volunteer on weekdays or lend a hand at special events, your contributions will leave a lasting impact on our community and enrich your own life in the process.
