IMPACTjax is a young professional program of the Jacksonville Chamber of Commerce who serves as a network of those who currently, or are looking to, live or work in the Jacksonville area. They have over 600, 21 to 40-year-olds. They are made up of a few committees whose goal is to:
1. Grow thru the Professional Development Committee;
2. Connect thru the Social & Cultural Committee;
3. Interact thru the Service & Giving Committee;
4. Voice thru the Government Affairs Committee.
I have been a member of IMPACTjax for almost a year now. I must say it's a great, low-pressure way to meet new people. They typically meet at a different venue once a month through the Social & Cultural Committee. I particulary enjoy being involved in some of the Service & Giving Committee events and I recently attended the IMPACTjax Holiday Party which was at the Omni Hotel this year. This was probably the most members I've seen in attendance at one event. Great opportunity for networking while benefiting a charity (they asked for a $10 donation of a Walmart gift card or cash to go towards the Safe Harbor Boys Home).
