On August 8, 1989, a small gathering of Voorhees business people met at Bowman & Company LLP. The discussion led to the formation of a local club designed to promote business in Voorhees Township.

    The by-laws that were adopted by this innovative group set the tone for the years of fellowship that followed. Their three objectives still hold true today..."to provide a forum for business persons and businesses in the Voorhees Township area to meet, and to share and discuss concerns and interest of civic, commercial, cultural, or economic nature: to facilitate a dialogue between the local business community and elected officials; and to channel the energies and resources of member businesses into improving the local community.

    Our community has certainly benefited as a direct result of this organization. Each year, Eastern Regional High School graduates profit from scholarship funds generated by our renowned "50/50s". Families in need of assistance around the winter holidays are provided with gifts and food from our annual Giving Tree event. Young entrepreneurs and professionals experience life in the real world through the Take a Student to Work exchange program. New and existing business persons meet and exchange ideas monthly at luncheons.

    This coming year marks the 15th anniversary of the Voorhees Business Association. Look for new and innovative events. With over 100 active members, this website will enable everyone to capitalize on each other's expertise and keep up-to-date with all of the exciting things happening in our community.
