What Grand Junction Area Chamber of Commerce does
Mission
The Grand Junction Area Chamber of Commerce will represent business and promote a vision for economic growth.

Program
The Grand Junction Area Chamber of Commerce worked toward creating a stronger local economy by providing technical one on one assistance to expanding companies, convening workforce development providers and businesses to develop ways to meet the need for skilled labor, providing networking opportunities for businesses, advocating for a business friendly environment and promoting the community to visitors, new residents and potential new employers.
The program described on its FY2024 Form 990.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $1.7M to $1.8M (+6%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2021 11% · 2024 17%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
