Happy Holidays! I hope this finds you in the midst of a season of gratitude and cheer. We are thankful to have you as a member of The Chamber. As a sign of our gratitude, we are hosting Salute to Community Heroes and Local Government Appreciation Reception at the Sheraton Chapel Hill Hotel this Thursday from 5:30-8 p.m. and would love to see you there.
As always, remember to buy local this holiday season. If you are looking to support our local businesses with your gifts and don't know where to start, I suggest taking a look at our 2021 Carrboro Cheer Gift Guide.

Recently, the Chapel Hill community came together to support 10-year-old Lee Fitch after a moving vehicle struck him and broke his ribs, back, and skull, leaving him barely breathing and with a severe concussion. The Fitch Family was shocked to discover that UNC Children’s does not have a comprehensive pediatric rehabilitation center. After much worrying and scrambling, Lee was forced to travel by ambulance to Atlanta for rehab. He was extremely lucky that his family could make this happen and that his dad could come with him. Help us create the Fitch Family Comprehensive Pediatric Rehabilitation Program at UNC Children’s to ensure that kids like Lee receive the care they need right here in the center of North Carolina, allowing for healing while being surrounded by their loving family and community.
