As a member of the Non-profit Sector Round Table and to follow up to the Chamber’s 2019 economic impact study of Pictou County’s non-profit sector, the Chamber has been activating recommendations identified in the study, such as welcoming involvement in Chamber activities and connecting the non-profits with business resources and vice versa.
The group published a newsletter written by Chamber member Leslie Otter (RBC) on the benefits of private sector employees participating in non-profit Boards. This collaboration has been recognized as being unique in Canada and was the subject of a briefing for the Pictou County Mayors and Warden.
