Brown Bag Lunch & Learns
Created in 2005, the free Brown Bag Lunch & Learns allow members to share their expertise in a given field (i.e., website development, marketing, benefits) with fellow members in a learning, non-sales call environment. Attendees bring their own lunches; refreshments are provided.
To accomodate busy work schedules, Brown Bags also have been offered in the early morning andlate afternoon.

Character Counts in Elmhurst
Typically a school-based initiative, but adopted throughout Elmhurst in 2003, Character Counts is a national coalition whose mission is to establish a framework for ethical decision making in our educational, civic and business lives through the promotion of the six pillars of character—Trustworthiness, Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, Caring and Citizenship.
The Chamber, as a Character Counts in Elmhurst partner, encourages members to be “citizens of good character” in their business dealings with customers and clients, as well as employees, co-workers and superiors.

Educational Partnerships
In an effort to create unique learning experiences for our membership, the Chamber continually work to develop partnerships with governmental agencies, educational institutions, chambers of commerce, business associations, not-for-profit organizations and member businesses.
The multi-chamber luncheons in February and March and the multi-chamber Business-to-Business Expo in October all feature educational components.
