On July 4th, the United States turns 250—a once-in-a-generation milestone and a powerful opportunity for chambers to lead with a message of unity, optimism, and community pride.

Hosted by Business for America in partnership with the Public Affairs Council, this national briefing will introduce A Birthday Letter to America—a simple but powerful invitation for leaders to share a message with employees, members, or communities about what this milestone means, what their organization stands for, and what they hope for the country’s future. The campaign is already attracting participation from national organizations including the Association of Chamber of Commerce Executives and the Lancaster Chamber, alongside other chambers and businesses across the country.

The initiative is part of Together for 250, a free, nonpartisan, business-led campaign designed to help chambers, companies, and business associations engage this milestone in ways that are positive, meaningful, and widely welcomed.

Attendees will receive:

• A ready-to-use concept chambers can activate immediately
• A preview of sample letters that chambers and member businesses can use
• Ideas to engage local businesses and generate positive visibility

July 4th will be here before we know it — and this is one of those moments chambers and companies are uniquely positioned to lead.
