&lt;p&gt;2020 was a hard year for everyone but the restaurant industry took an especially hard hit with mandates limiting capacity. Each year the Chamber of Commerce hosts various Restaurant Weeks throughout the Greater Lehigh Valley. This year, more than ever, we are looking for the support of our business community to rally together to support restaurants in our area through Southern Lehigh Restaurant Week. This event brings awareness, exposure, foot traffic, and energy to our local restaurants while we advertise on their behalf, driving new and returning business back through their doors OR to purchase takeout and curbside to-go options.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Whether you&amp;#39;re a restaurant who wants to participate in Restaurant Week or you&amp;#39;re a local business who wants to sponsor the initiative, please reach out to AshleyL@LehighValleyChamber.org or (610) 739-1273 for more information!&lt;/p&gt;

We will explore the way in which we lead and build relationships. We will gain a better understanding of how we use our being/identity to navigate in this world. To create an environment in which self and others realize their best self and enjoy meeting respective organizations goals and objectives. This will be looked at from a Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion lens. We will name and own our current place on the inclusion roadmap. This is about developing and fostering trust and respect, leading to belonging. A workplace where assimilation is not the desired goal and bringing your best self into a place where differences are seen as an asset and healthy tension fosters innovation and creativity.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;The &amp;quot;Sanctuary&amp;quot; is our concept for providing a nurturing environment for animals i&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;n need. Our facility is home to most of our cats and dogs, although some reside in foster homes initially. This helps us to learn about their behavioral traits and make &amp;quot;right match&amp;quot; placements. Our animals are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, treated for fleas and parasites, and tested for heartworm.&amp;nbsp; This means that any animal adopted from The Sanctuary at Haafsville is ready to start a new life in your home.&amp;nbsp; We are a volunteer-based organization and are very conservative financially which allows us to provide exceptional care to our resident animals.&amp;nbsp; We are funded by our ongoing fundraising efforts, donations and our partnership.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you&amp;#39;re interested in getting invovled as a vendor, sponsor, or donor, please reach out to AshleyL@LehighValleyChamber.org or call (610) 739-1273&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;THANK YOU SPONSORS!&lt;/p&gt;

As mask mandates and telework mandates are lifted&amp;nbsp;and vaccinations are now available to all Pennsylvania adults, questions about returning to work are mounting. Perhaps some staff will remain remote, while others return - some vaccinated, some not.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How can businesses successfully navigate the reopening process and continue to manage their employees and operations well, when it&amp;rsquo;s likely &amp;ldquo;the office&amp;rdquo; will never be the same again?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;Join us for this insightful presentation and panel discussion!&lt;/p&gt;
