Dear Members and Supporters,

The Virginia Black Chamber of Commerce (VABCC) is seeking visionary leaders and senior executives to join our Board of Directors.

We’re seeking individuals with a statewide perspective and the ability to help shape the Chamber’s strategic direction through their influence, insight, and institutional impact. Ideal candidates include executives from major corporations, financial institutions, government agencies, higher education, or philanthropic organizations who are committed to advancing business excellence across Virginia.

Board members play a critical role in guiding the Chamber’s mission, strengthening partnerships, and creating sustainable opportunities for Black-owned businesses throughout the Commonwealth.

While our small business community remains the heartbeat of VABCC, this solicitation is focused on attracting senior-level leaders who can leverage organizational resources and relationships to drive broad, statewide economic impact.
