As a community, one of the most important ways we can shape our future is by making our voices heard through voting. Today is Election Day and your last opportunity to cast your vote. Your participation matters. Take the time to fulfill your civic duty, make your voice heard and exercise your right to vote.

As our region continues to grow, investing in our schools is an investment in the future of our workforce and the long-term strength of our business community. We encourage our New Hanover County voters to vote YES on the New Hanover County Schools bond referendum. This bond will support critical improvements across our school system, including some new schools and facilities, as well as enhanced safety and security measures and technology upgrades at every school. Learn more about the New Hanover County Schools bond referendum: https://yesfornewhanoverschools.com A strong education system is essential to developing the next generation of talent, attracting businesses and ensuring our region remains competitive. Supporting our schools today means investing in the people and workforce who will shape our economy tomorrow.

Brunswick County also has a school bond referendum on the ballot. While we haven’t built a campaign regarding that referendum, we believe infrastructure investments are critical across the entire region. Learn more about the proposed investment in Brunswick County Schools: https://www.bcswan.net/school-board/2026bond

If you’re not sure what's on your ballot, take a few minutes to review your sample ballot before heading to the polls. The North Carolina State Board of Elections makes this easy through its online Voter Search tool: https://www.ncsbe.gov/voting/sample-ballot Reviewing your ballot ahead of time is a great way to become familiar with the candidates and issues that will shape our community.

The future of our community is shaped by the decisions we make today. Don't miss the opportunity to have a say. Get out and vote TODAY!

Wilmington, NC was ranked #7 for talent attraction among large metros by Lightcast! 🌟

Talent attraction requires more than encouraging people to move here. It means creating meaningful career opportunities, investing in the workforce, and building a community where professionals and their families can thrive. Through initiatives such as NC Career Coast and partnerships among employers, educators, and community leaders, Wilmington is taking an intentional approach to attracting and developing talent.

The Greater Wilmington Chamber of Commerce is investing in the next generation of local talent through our Career and Leadership Development Academy, in partnership with New Hanover County Schools. Thank you to the NC General Assembly and The Endowment for supporting this program and helping us invest in our community’s future.

Attracting talent is only part of the equation. Retaining talent means helping people feel connected to the community and invested in its future. Through programs like Encounter Wilmington, Leadership Wilmington, and CultureWorks, The Greater Wilmington Chamber is committed to making a difference. Our Chamber’s Leadership Development team can help your organization identify programs that align with your employees’ needs and professional goals. Reach out to Zoey LeTendre at [email protected] to explore opportunities.

Chambers Change Things 🌟

The Greater Wilmington Chamber of Commerce does more than support businesses. We help build stronger communities, create opportunities, and shape the future of our region.

We're putting that mission into action through our Career & Leadership Development Academy. In partnership with New Hanover County Schools and local businesses, we're connecting students with real-world career experiences, helping them discover their strengths, explore career paths, and build the leadership skills they'll need to succeed.

Because when we invest in our students, we're investing in the future of our workforce, our businesses, and our entire community. That's how Chambers Change things.
