#ILOVELOCAL --- WANT TO JOIN THE CAMPAIGN?



All across Illinois, small businesses provide our communities with good jobs, quality customer service, and the character that makes our cities, towns and neighborhoods feel like home. According to the SBA, small businesses make up an astonishing 99.6 of all businesses in Illinois.

That's why from Chicago to Carbondale, from Abingdon to Zion, Illinois chambers of commerce and small businesses are coming together in this time of unprecedented challenge to share resources, build community and unite to champion small businesses across the state.

Meet ILove Local, our weeklong statewide initiative to encourage shopping locally. Look for your local chamber below to connect to open businesses in your community. If your local chamber isn't listed, check out our directories below the chamber logos.
