Ga’Brielle Sauls First Impression Coordinator

Established in 1898 as the Mercantile Club of Kansas City, Kansas, a local group of businessmen formed a membership based group which set about growing the community, and would later be re-named and established as the Kansas City Kansas Chamber of Commerce in 1918. Since that time, the Chamber has been a leading voice of the business community in KCK and surrounding areas.

The KCK community has experienced exponential economic growth over the last five years and the KCK Chamber is at the forefront of that success by enhancing and leveraging the talents and resources of its diverse members to sustain and catapult development opportunities throughout the Metropolitan area.

The KCK Chamber is a membership based organization led by a volunteer board with up to 31 members. The day-to-day work is handled by a paid staff of full-time employees. Staff works with a variety of committees made up of members and the Board of Directors.
