Chamber Affinity Programs
The Greenfield Area Chamber of Commerce is committed to help- ing
its members cut costs and save money wherever possible in an ev-
er changing economic environment. Chamber membership guarantees access to exclusive discounts from
our existing members. By taking advantage of such discounts, members can see a quick return on their
membership investment with the Greenfield Area Chamber of Commerce and realize unparalleled savings
on many products and services used daily.
The Greenfield Area Chamber of Commerce is proud to offer members the chance to work with the
Chamber in an Affinity Program . An affinity partnership is between a Chamber member who is willing to
offer all Chamber members a significant discount. A Chamber member who decides to participate in an
affinity program does so without any responsibilities on the part of the Greenfield Area Chamber of
Commerce. The Chamber assumes no liability in the business exchange between Chamber members as a
part of this program. The Chamber agrees to promote affinity partnerships through all means available.
We will review each affinity opportunity based upon the following criteria:
1. The value of the product or service being offered
2. Benefits offered to the members of the Greenfield Area Chamber of Commerce
3. Benefits to the Greenfield Area Chamber of Commerce
4. Commitment to the affinity program for the timeframe specified on the application
