The Palouse Chamber of Commerce
The Palouse Chamber of Commerce is a network of local leaders that advocate for local Palouse business owners, facilitate community programming, promote regional culture, and foster cross-cultural intergenerational relationships.
Through fundraisers, community events, and legislative outreach, we have brought hundreds of thousands of dollars into our community’s social infrastructure. We are a gregariously welcoming group of neighbors working hard to make Palouse an extra special place to grow up, move to, or even just visit for the afternoon.
Our Membership
As the Chamber, we are well-connected to our local business community—from downtown brick-and-mortar venues to freelancers, contractors, tradesmen, and home business owners. We’d love for you to be part of our team.
Our business community is unique in that it is made up of independent owners, rural entrepreneurs, and many women-led businesses in a community of just about 1000 people. The Palouse business community is proud of the intergenerational diversity that has created a legacy of complex relationships across age and peer groups.
