Happy New Year! As we turn the page to 2026, it’s a time for fresh beginnings, renewed goals, and hopeful visions for the future. This year is extra special for all of us at the Sacramento Rainbow Chamber of Commerce—we are celebrating 25 incredible years of building community, fostering connections, and championing diversity.

To mark this milestone, we’re thrilled to unveil our new Chamber logo. This design honors our rich history while embracing the future, featuring a vibrant rainbow arc above the California State Capitol—a symbol of pride, strength, and unity. It reflects who we are: a diverse, dynamic community rooted in Sacramento, the heart of California.

In this newsletter, you’ll find a member survey where we invite you to share your story: why you joined, where you are on your journey, what your goals are for 2026, and ways the Chamber can support your growth and success in the coming year. Your voice matters, and your input will help us continue to grow and support you in meaningful ways.

Over the past 25 years, thanks to the dedication of our members, Boards, and staff, we’ve grown to more than 300 members and raised nearly $500,000 to fund student scholarships and support local nonprofits. These achievements are a testament to the power of community—and to each of you who make this Chamber vibrant and strong.

Thank you for being part of this journey. Here’s to a year filled with growth, connection, and celebration. Together, let’s make 2026 unforgettable!

We need 4 minutes of your time. If you fill out the survey you will be entered to win 2 tickets to our next Lunch & Networking Mixer.

What has the Chamber been up to...

Our Lunch & Networking Event was a huge success. Be sure you save the date for the next one on April 21, 2026 - Location TBA

We had the pleasure of hosting a reception for our 2026 Drag Queen Bingo beneficiaries, and the energy in the room was incredible. Seeing so many organizations connect, collaborate, and get excited for their upcoming night to shine made the evening especially memorable.
