The Mission of the Greater Pittston Chamber of Commerce is to enhance the growth and development of business and the quality of life in our community by helping to keep our members informed, connected and prosperous. The Chamber organizes and directs the energies of those who believe a community worth living in is a community worth improving and enables people to accomplish collectively what none could do individually.
