Essex Chamber of Commerce were delighted to announce valued members, SNAP Charity, as their next nominated charity of the year. SNAP is joining a long line of esteemed charities that the Chambers have had the privilege of supporting over the years.
By being officially selected as nominated charity of the year, SNAP will have increased opportunities to engage with the Chambers’ diverse business community, raise awareness of the fantastic work we do, and benefit from a whole Chambers team approach to fundraising.
The charity’s award-winning offering aligns closely with the Essex Chambers’ commitment to supporting our members. SNAP supports, nurtures, and partners with parents who may be feeling isolated or facing challenges with a child or young person whose additional needs are not being met.
The Essex Chambers of Commerce offers a similar sense of connection and support to the Essex business community. SNAP creates a safe environment and support network for families to connect with each other, much like our own thriving business network. It is these shared values and our deep respect for the work SNAP does that led us to choosing them as this year’s nominated charity.
Denise Rossiter, CEO of the Essex Chambers of Commerce, said:
“Essex Chambers are thrilled to be working with SNAP Charity as our latest nominated charity and are excited to see the impact our team’s fundraising efforts will have.
“Over the coming months, Essex Chambers will be championing, showcasing and promoting the wonderful work that SNAP and its volunteers do to support families across our communities who need it most.”
Karen Boath, CEO SNAP Charity, commented:
“We’re extremely delighted to have been chosen as Charity of the Year by Essex Chambers of Commerce. Building strong connections within the business community is incredibly important to us, and this partnership gives us a great opportunity to collaborate, share knowledge and raise awareness of the support SNAP provides to families across Essex. We are looking forward to an exciting year ahead.”
