Chamber Wellness Challenge Closing Ceremony

By Eric Thompson

As the 2nd Annual Chamber Wellness Challenge comes to a close, we wanted to take a moment to reflect on these past three months. As a group, we have walked over 162 million steps (that’s almost 77,000 miles, which is 1/3 the distance to the moon and 3 trips around the earth). 

Through education and outreach we directly impacted the communities where we live and work. Through coordination and thoughtful collaboration, we delivered critical resources and financial support to our most vulnerable neighbors.

We have enjoyed getting to know all of you and interacting with you through the portal, social media and in real life! We built an incredible community, as we took this journey to improved health and wellness together. Our team loved hearing your stories and seeing the photos you shared each week, as you explored the great outdoors and forged new friendships along the way. Community is at the core of everything we do. Thank you for investing in the people and organizations that serve those most at-risk in our own backyards. 

Without further ado… here are this year’s winners!

  • Congratulations to our First-place trophy winner Shoreline Chamber of Commerce winning $1,000.00 for The Diaper Bank of CT.
  • Congratulations to our Second-place winner Waterbury Regional Chamber of Commerce winning $500.00 for the United Way of Greater Waterbury
  • Congratulations to our Third-place winner Newington Chamber of Commerce winning $250.00 for Newington Vet Coffee House

Thank you again for joining us over the course of the three-month Challenge! We hope you will join us again in Spring 2022 as we kick off the 3rd annual Chamber Wellness Challenge. Until then…please keep in touch with our team and Keep Moving Forward towards your wellness goals!
