What We Do
Providing an inclusive space for Tucson’s LGBTQIA+ professionals to network and build their businesses while simultaneously educating allies, the Tucson LGBT Chamber of Commerce (AKA “the Gaymber”) approaches advocacy for the LGBTQIA+ community through an economic lens. We believe Inclusive Business is Good Business, and because we know the LGBTQIA+ community is a vital part of America as business owners, employers, employees, and consumers, we work tirelessly to support our local LGBTQ+ and allied business community.

Our Pillars
Networking
Membership within the chamber provides powerful networking possibilities, one of the most loyal and dedicated consumer niches, marketing and advertising opportunities, and empowerment found through interaction within Tucson’s LGBT and straight allied community.
Education
Our Foundation provides scholarships and mentors for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender students at the University of Arizona. We advocate for education for the LGBT community. And we are committed to helping educate the public on LGBT community issues.
Advocacy
Being an ally means amplifying LGBTQI+
life experiences across the diverse spectrum of our communities. This requires taking the time to listen, learn, and lend support to queer voices, especially to BIPOC queer voices who are the most marginalized.
