An opportunity to meet and do business with other business owners in the greater Merrifield area.

An opportunity to advertise your business in a monthly newsletter that is distributed to approximately 900 businesses through the greater Merrifield community.

An opportunity to participate on our scholarship fund raffle held at every monthly luncheon. GMBA has set up a scholarship fund for an orphan student in Northern Virginia who will be majoring in business administration. The student will be chosen by the Orphan Foundation of America, (orphan.org) and the funds will be distributed each August as the student enters college. Our goal this year is to give $2000 to the recipient to pay for books and supplies.

As a new member, you are featured in our newsletter with a lengthy article about your company and a picture of the designated representative of the company.

We have active Land Use, Outreach, Publicity and Membership Committees that are meeting and planning events and activities throughout the year.
