What Ocean Community Chamber of Commerce does
Mission
Chamber of commerce to create and maintain a positive business climate that fosters economic prosperity for our community through programs that sustain local businesses, promote tourism, enhance our members success and contribute to a thriving quality of life.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
The organization is a chamber of commerce and encourages trade and commerce, provides information regarding businesses, tourism, and the community at large. We promote member businesses, and strive to make the local area a great place to live, work and play. We represent close to 1000 businesses in the area.
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 2023 to 2024, from $1.4M to $1.7M (+22%).
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: 2017 32% · 2018 44% · 2019 49% · 2020 58% · 2021 29% · 2022 9% · 2023 12% · 2024 5% · 2025 5%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.
