“Aliso Viejo is a thriving community made up of many important components. Our neighborhoods convey a friendly “hometown feel.” Our schools teach students to recognize the importance of education, knowledge and creativity. Our youth sports programs bring the community together and energize residents with exercise, fitness and friendly competition. Our retail areas attract shoppers from throughout the region, and our recreational areas give our residents the opportunity to be active and embrace the great outdoors.
With all these important facets of Aliso Viejo, our business community plays a critical role that impacts our community. Of course, businesses generate tax revenue and provide jobs, but they also attract companies, clients and commerce opportunities. World-class corporations locate in our city because it is attractive, accessible, safe and successful; their employees rent or purchase homes here; and their clients shop and dine while visiting our city. Our Aliso Viejo Chamber of Commerce is central to all these activities and an integral part of the growth and development of our city.
Over the years, our Chamber has distinguished itself as an important resource for volunteers – another essential way the Chamber supports our city. Throughout the years, the Aliso Viejo Chamber of Commerce has helped our city, schools and businesses to succeed beyond the constraints of their budgets, with dedicated citizens who are willing to devote their personal time for the betterment of the community. As a valued partner, trusted resource and efficient conduit to the businesses of Aliso Viejo, our Chamber helps to ensure that fundraising efforts, community activities and entertainment events are fun and enjoyable. The Chamber creates an important connection between the businesses, community and city and helps us all to work together and succeed.
With the help and support of the Aliso Viejo Chamber of Commerce, we will continue to provide our residents with the quality of life that is the envy of Orange County.”
