Tempe Chamber MAC Celebrates 40 Years 

by David Key

In 2021, the Tempe Chamber Military Affairs Committee celebrated 40 years in support of military personnel in the Greater Phoenix area. Since 1981, the MAC has supported veterans and servicemembers through sponsorships, fundraising, awards and scholarships. Each year, the committee hosts the Copper 5 Awards and the Red, White & Blue Awards. This year, award recipients each received an additional item: a commemorative challenge coin. 

“The Tempe Chamber MAC has been proudly supporting our active-duty, reserve and veteran servicemembers for the past 40 years,” said MAC Chair Kevin O’Brien. “In commemoration of this anniversary, we minted challenge coins that serve as a reminder to these servicemembers that we are here to support them in the years to come.” 

In addition to recognizing outstanding servicemembers and veterans throughout the Valley, the MAC helps businesses connect with veterans and helps with employer workplace resources and programs. For more information about our Military Affairs Committee, visit tempechamber.org/committees.
