Dear Members and Supporters of the Indy Rainbow Chamber of Commerce,

I hope this letter finds you well. I am excited to share some important news with you all. After careful consideration and planning, I am pleased to announce that the Indy Rainbow Chamber of Commerce is expanding its reach to encompass the entire state of Indiana with the creation of the Indiana Rainbow Chamber of Commerce.

This expansion marks a significant milestone in our organization's journey. By extending our presence statewide, we aim to amplify our advocacy efforts, provide enhanced networking opportunities, and offer valuable resources to LGBTQ+ owned and allied businesses across Indiana. Our goal remains steadfast to foster an inclusive business environment where diversity is celebrated, and every member can thrive.

The decision to expand was driven by the incredible growth and support we have received from our members and partners in Indianapolis and surrounding areas. We are grateful for your continued commitment to our mission and look forward to forging new connections and partnerships throughout the state.

As we embark on this new chapter, we remain dedicated to upholding the values that define us equality, inclusivity, and economic empowerment. Together, we can create a stronger, more vibrant business community where all voices are heard and respected.

We encourage you to stay tuned for updates regarding our expansion efforts, upcoming events, and opportunities to get involved. Your participation and engagement are crucial to our success, and we value your continued support as we work towards building a more inclusive business landscape in Indiana.

Thank you for being part of our journey. We are excited about the future of the Indiana Rainbow Chamber of Commerce and look forward to achieving great things together.

Warm regards,

Kent J. Henry
