The Pekin Area Chamber of Commerce made it possible to open my dream salon by giving me the opportunities and connections that were necessary. Their help and guidance lead me in the right direction to other chamber members that are within the community. The Chamber of Commerce also helped me stay informed of any grants that were available while I was starting my business and they continue to help me stay connected in our community.
