About Us

OUR MISSION & VISION

The mission of the Chamber is to foster a thriving community to call home through economic stability and a high quality of life while welcoming diversity and cultivating hometown pride.

Our vision is to ensure that the Hazlehurst and Jeff Davis County community continues to be a place where the warmth of yesterday meets the promise of tomorrow for generations to come

ABOUT THE CHAMBER

The Hazlehurst-Jeff Davis County Chamber is a non-profit, member-driven organization governed by a volunteer Board of Directors made up of business owners, civic leaders, and engaged citizens. We work in close partnership with the Board of Tourism, the Development Authority, city and county leadership, and the Georgia Chamber of Commerce to support a thriving local economy and an exceptional quality of life.

We connect the dots between people, ideas, and opportunities — because we believe that when we work together, we all rise together.
