Small businesses are vital to the Billings economy. Specific to Billings and the chamber, our membership of over 1,100 businesses is made up of over 80% small businesses. We recognize their importance and are thrilled to celebrate them during our Annual Small Business Appreciation Week May 2^nd-6^th. We call them small, but they are definitely mighty!

Small Business Appreciation Week celebrates and shows appreciation to these businesses. The shops who sponsor our little league teams, donate to non-profits, fundraisers and raffles, who give to the Go Fund Me campaigns arranged for our community members in need. Small businesses show up, even when they're down, and the Chamber is creating opportunities for everyone to show up and show appreciation for all they do.
