Mission Statement

Founded in 2017, the Armed Forces Chamber, is a mission-driven organization dedicated to supporting and empowering those who serve or have served in the United States Armed Forces. With a steadfast commitment to community, business, and advocacy, the Armed Forces Chamber operates as a trusted resource and partner for military members, their families, and advocates across the nation.

The Armed Forces Chamber proudly serves a broad population that includes active-duty service members, Guard and Reserve personnel, military veterans plus retirees, their spouses and dependents, as well as individuals who are members of JROTC (Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps) and the Civil Air Patrol. By addressing the unique challenges and opportunities faced by this diverse group, the organization plays a critical role in bridging the gap between military life and civilian success. 

The Armed Forces Chamber welcomes members from all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces—including the Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marine Corps, Navy, and Space Force—as well as individuals affiliated with the U.S. Department of Defense. This inclusive approach ensures that every service member, regardless of their military background, finds a place within the Armed Forces Chamber’s supportive network.

Geographically, the Armed Forces Chamber operates in key military and veteran hubs across the United States, including Nevada; California; Texas and Florida. These regional presences allow the Armed Forces Chamber to tailor its programs to the specific needs of military communities and to build strong relationships with both public and private sector partners.

In its efforts to remain closely connected with the armed forces, the Armed Forces Chamber collaborates with several partners, including Colleges, Universities, and Professional Schools; Commercial Banks and Credit Unions; General Medical and Surgical Hospitals; National Security; Public Administration; and more. These partnerships strengthen the Armed Forces Chamber’s ability to advocate effectively for service members and to develop programs that align with current military initiatives.

Through community development, business support, and advocacy for armed forces members,  the Armed Forces Chamber continues to fulfill its mission of creating a stronger future for those who serve. As it grows, the Armed Forces Chamber remains unwavering in its vision: to be the premier organization supporting military members, their families, and advocates in achieving lasting success and community impact.

Vision Statement

By 2035, the Armed Forces Chamber will bring to life a bold and transformative vision—a premier headquarters in Southern Nevada that will serve as the heartbeat of our mission. This state-of-the-art facility will feature expansive warehouse and office space, multiple loading docks, and a vibrant array of attractions including a dining hall, gift shop, military-themed attraction, museum, outdoor recreation area, showroom, and theater. More than just a building, this flagship location will be a destination—a powerful tribute to our nation's heroes and a dynamic hub for engagement, support, and celebration of military culture.

Over the next decade, we will grow our business membership to 15,000, establishing one of the largest and most influential networks of veteran-owned, military-affiliated, and patriotic businesses in the nation. These enterprises will drive economic growth, foster meaningful collaboration, and lead with purpose. In tandem, we will expand our direct support through community programs to reach nearly half of Nevada’s armed forces population—impacting more than 100,000 service members and their families.

To support this growth, the Armed Forces Chamber will invest in a fleet of operational vehicles—including passenger vans, box trucks, cargo vans, and golf carts—to ensure we remain responsive, mobile, and ready to serve our members and communities at a moment’s notice.

Most importantly, we will create 250 meaningful jobs for local veterans. These are not just jobs—they are pathways to purpose, financial stability, and continued service in civilian life. Every position we create reaffirms our belief that those who served our country deserve the best opportunities our society can offer.

This vision is bold, ambitious, and achievable—and with the right partners, it will become reality. Together, we can build a future that honors the past, empowers the present, and inspires generations to come.
