We empower Black and minority-owned businesses and economic interests across central Oklahoma by sharing resources, building relationships, and advocating for equal opportunity and equitable outcomes.


Founded on the desire to empower Black and minority-owned businesses and unite the community at large, the Oklahoma City Black Chamber of Commerce exists to serve as an economic and professional resource, relationship builder, and advocate for the common good of a growing metropolitan area.

Through our memberships, we connect entrepreneurs and business owners with progressive-minded organizations and individuals across the region who invest their time, energy, and financial resources for the benefit of unified community development.

Empowering businesses and uniting communities.

Oklahoma City Black
Chamber Foundation

The OKC Black Chamber created a Non-Profit Foundation 501(c)3 so that our partners and supporters are able to make tax-deductible donations towards the Foundation to support our community through philanthropy and service with opportunities for scholarships to invest in our youth. We are also able to provide additional grants and resources to our partners.
