Purpose Driven…
Our Annual Calcutta provides the additional funds needed to make Beaulieu Place a great, safe place to meet, gather and do business in Central VT, including a conference center that the Chamber offers free of charge to local non-profit organizations such as the American Red Cross, Scouting America, VT State Police, and other do-good organizations.
We saw many community groups and businesses in need following each flood of the last two years that we could lend a helping hand to, offering up not only the 1,100 sq. ft. conference center, but we also accommodated those seeking office space in their interim. We are grateful to help our communities whenever possible and this event nurtures our philosophy into reality…thank you.
This fundraiser is the only Chamber event that is used strictly to fund the expenses of our building (Beaulieu Place) in Berlin, VT that not only houses the CV Chamber, but also offices for several local professionals & organizations. Thank you for participating in this year’s Calcutta and contributing to its success!!
