About Us
Our Story
StriveYPG was developed in 2012 by the Sault Ste. Marie Chamber of Commerce to fill a representation gap for individuals between the ages of 19 to 40. This subcommittee of the Sault’s Chamber of Commerce has an elected executive, which is rotated annually based on its active membership votes. The elected executive of Strive works with other groups, individuals, and businesses inside the community to provide networking events, learning development opportunities, and community involvement initiatives.
