Welcome!
The Central Virginia African American Chamber of Commerce (CVAACC) is a non-profit organization serving the African American community of the Richmond Metropolitan Area.  The CVAACC is established for the purpose of progressing business development and growth in the African American community.  We believe that overall wealth can be built from within the community through a powerfully supported network of African American businesses.  CVAACC is dedicated to empowering and sustaining the African American communities of Central Virginia through entrepreneurship and favorable capitalistic activity.

Our mission is to strengthen the community by supporting and promoting the recycling of dollars within the African American community.  We will realize this mission by educating the African American business and consumer base on the value of doing business with one another.
