The Chamber strives to educate the general public and Chamber members on the importance of business and the maintenance of a favorable climate in which business can flourish. The Chamber believes a healthy economic environment is vital to the Village, allowing successful businesses to contribute financially to civic development.

Keeping the lines of communication open between business and the community is an important function of the Chamber. For this purpose, the Chamber sponsors public candidate forums and special programs designed to address timely issues and controversial topics. It also generates literature in the form of a monthly electronic newsletter and an annual Community Guide and Directory for use by the membership and for a wide Mount Prospect readership.

Mount Prospect is a neighborhood built on a base of entrepreneurship, and many of the businesspeople who work here are also residents. Through the Chamber, business is able to participate in an organized effort to give service and resources back to the community that supports it, making Mount Prospect a better place to live and do business.
