Malvern, PA – Once a year, the Chester County Chamber Foundation hosts its Summer Solstice celebration. This signature event marks the Foundation's one and only fundraising opportunity, which allows it to support the Chester County Chamber of Business & Industry (CCCBI), the Youth Leadership Program, and other charitable endeavors.

This year, the Summer Solstice will be held at the beautiful Loch Aerie Mansion, Chester County's premier wedding and events venue. The classic, timeless and elegant venue, which celebrated their 155th anniversary last year, will join the Foundation in welcoming guests from across the region on Thursday, June 20^th from 5:00pm to 8:00pm.

The Chamber Foundation supports CCCBI by preserving and promoting healthy and sustainable commerce in Chester County for the benefit of all members of the community through programs and grant-making to provide youth leadership training, education, career paths and workforce development.

At the cornerstone of the Foundation's work is the Youth Leadership Program, which just celebrated its 2023-2024 program year graduation. The main objective of the Chester County Chamber Foundation's Youth Leadership Program is to create exceptional opportunities for all students in Chester County to prepare them for future careers and to groom our next generation of community and business leaders.

The program helps students create professional networks with industry and community leaders as well as form lasting friendships with other Chester County students. In addition to forming these worthwhile networks, the participants learn valuable skills for future careers and leadership positions. As our objective is career readiness, we not only concentrate on necessary skills such as resume/cover letter writing and communication, we also address the vital “soft skills” needed for future success. Some of these driven students will be in attendance at the Summer Solstice to share their experience throughout the program. 

CCCBI is looking forward to an eventful evening filled with old friends, new connections, and a celebration of the Chester County Chamber Foundation's charitable efforts. With the help of our generous sponsors, the Foundation will have food provided by John Serock Catering, wine from Penns Woods Winery and a signature cocktail with the help of Cafe Gourmino's mobile coffee bar! Tickets are $125 for CCCBI Members, $150 for Non-Members. All are welcome to attend.
