The Perry Chamber was fortunate enough to have Tammy Shepherd from SOAR Nonprofit Solutions lead our 2022-2023 Board Retreat. Her insight and guidance will help us move forward in the future!

Board retreats allow you, as well as other attendees, to get valuable information about what’s happening within our organization or business awhile also getting updated on anything new coming. It’s so helpful to have someone with experience come in and provide guidance. 

Thanks Tammy!

The Richmond Hill Bryan County Chamber of Commerce was fortunate to find Tammy in 2022! We hired her to facilitate our Board of Directors retreat as well as to assess and develop a plan to take our Chamber to the next level. 

Tammy has been such a blessing to work with both personally and professionally and we cannot recommend her enough for your nonprofit organization.

Richmond Hill Bryan County Chamber

"Working with Tammy from Soar Non-Profit Solutions has been transformative for our organization! She helped us build a clear roadmap to success for our work as a small rural chamber of commerce. She did an incredibly thorough assessment of every aspect of the organization with Bylaws, finances, membership, and programming, and helped guide us through developing a significant overhaul of it all. She spent many hours with us to shape a clear strategic direction that we are already seeing the benefits of, even within weeks of working with her. Tammy's expertise and skills are unparalleled, and we would highly recommend her to any Chamber looking for a strategic thinker in their corner! As we celebrate our sapphire anniversary of 45 years supporting businesses in our region, we are looking forward to 45 more thanks to Tammy's help!"

“Tammy was referred by a mutual colleague with statewide relationships at a time our local chamber needed strategic direction only a former chamber CEO could provide. Our executive team enlisted her help in Statesboro and Bulloch County and her expertise has been invaluable! She’s resourceful, self-motivated, relational and most of all professional. Our board and group of chamber volunteers were able to rest in her knowledge and application. She always provided a thorough, measurable plan and delivered with regard to the proposed timeline and expected results. We began using her services with a conservative approach, she was able to carry us all the way through the hiring of our new CEO. I highly recommend her for restructuring, reconnaissance, facilitating and strategic planning for any nonprofit organization.”  

Mandy Fortune, 2021 Chair of the Board

 I just wanted to thank you again for yesterday and all the hard work you have put into our reorganization of the Chamber.  The Board Retreat Day flew by and was a great experience for me and the board! I thought the lunch with elected officials was very good too. 

So happy to have gotten to know you through this four-month process. Best of luck with your new business. Your love of chamber work does shine through.

My best,
