What made me want to join the Chamber of
Commerce of New Haven? First, and foremost, I love the
city of New Haven and its people. I want to see New
Haven flourish and the residents to be blessed. With my
business background, as well as serving on multiple
steering committees, the Chamber seemed the best way
to be involved in our community. It has been wonderful to
see how the city has blossomed with an eclectic mix of
businesses, and increased tourism. New Haven is truly a
jewel on the river.

Executive Board Member, Treasurer
Retired, Debbie & Dennis Winters

I grew up in a small town and I remember my parents volunteering for events in town.  I have worked in smaller towns and can see the need for help with nonprofit events so I have followed in their footsteps and like to be involved with organizations like the Chamber.  Even though I am retired, I still like to be active in organiztions.

 For me, being a part of the Chamber is not just about being part of a small town community organization. It gives me the opportunity to serve the community I live and work in in ways that I can’t do on my own. It is not only being involved in community events and volunteering time, it is networking with the other amazing members and getting to know their businesses as well. Being part of the Chamber is helping grow and strengthen my roots in New Haven.
