Welcome Welcome
We’ve had another exciting and impactful few weeks, and we’re so grateful to have you as part of our Chamber community. One of our biggest highlights was the Three Rivers Arts Fest—what an incredible day celebrating creativity, community, and local talent! Thank you to everyone who attended, participated, and helped make this event such a success.
We also had a fantastic time at our Masters-themed Bunco Night! It was a fun and festive evening filled with laughter, friendly competition, and meaningful connections. Events like these continue to remind us just how special our Chamber community truly is.
Our She Means Business Luncheon will be held this week and is sure to be another standout moment—and a SOLD OUT success! We are incredibly thankful for our generous sponsors who helped bring this meaningful event to life. Their support allows us to continue creating opportunities that inspire, connect, and empower.
As we look ahead, we’re gearing up for one of our most anticipated events of the year our Annual Chamber Gala. Tickets are on sale now, and we encourage you to secure yours soon! We also have sponsorship opportunities still available, offering a great way to showcase your business while supporting this signature event. You can find more details in the following pages.

Through the Georgia Heart Program, rural hospitals can connect patients to advanced care without leaving their community. The Georgia HEART (Help Enhance Access to Rural Treatment) Hospital Program is a state initiative allowing taxpayers to receive a 100% Georgia income tax credit for contributions made to qualified rural hospitals. Quality healthcare isn’t just for big cities. It’s right here, where home is.
The Georgia HEART Program is a program that simply allows you to take the money you already owe for state taxes and redirect it to an eligible rural hospital, such as Jeff Davis Hospital. Typically, when you pay your state taxes that money goes into a general fund. Instead of sending your tax money into that general fund you, through HEART you can now redirect those state taxes directly to Jeff Davis Hospital and keep your taxes local! It’s a great way to make a transformational difference in rural healthcare in our community at no extra expense to you.
For more info on how you can help OUR local hospital through the Georgia HEART program, pleas contact: cechaney@jeffdavishospital.com
