Chamber President Rich DeMartino |
|
has announced the selection of |
|
Christopher L Vulpis, CPA |
|
as “Member of the Month”. |
|
Kiman, Levittan, Levine & Co. LLP’s, Chris has been
a long standing member of the Chamber of Commerce.
In January Chris was installed for the second time as
Treasurer and is also currently the co-chairman of the
Chamber’s Charity Golf outing. He is also the
immediate past president.
As a member of his firm Chris joined the Chamber
over twelve years ago. During that time Chris has held
several titles including Treasurer, Vice-President and
as mentioned President. During his tenure as President
Chris presided over a 100% increase in membership.
Also as President Chris was instrumental in organizing
the Chamber’s Charity organization, The Greater NHP
Chamber Fund. The fund was created as a way for the
business community to generate funds that would be
distributed to needy and worthwhile charities and
individuals in the Greater New Hyde Park community.
Recently Chris was honored as the Nassau Council of
Chamber’s Small Business Person of the Year for the
Greater New Hyde Park area.
When asked about the Chamber Chris stated “Joining
the Chamber has been one of the most fulfilling
endeavors in my business career. I have made numerous
business contacts from my activities with the Chamber.
It has also given me access to some terrific vendors
over the years. Whether in my professional or personal
life, if a need arises I try to find a Chamber vendor to
do the job. They are usually someone I have gotten to
want to give that little extra for a fellow member. I
recommend to all members and consumers to keep the
Chamber directory handy and access it whenever you
are looking for a vendor.
Chris has been with his firm for twenty years and
partner for the last ten. “As a firm that specializes in
small business I find it very rewarding to be a trusted
advisor for our clients. The firm has been in New Hyde
Park for over twenty five years. “I have grown to love
the Greater New Hyde Park Community”. I look
forward each year to the Chamber’s participation in the
annual Memorial Day parade. Over the years I’ve gotten
to attend many local functions and have enjoyed getting
to know the people of the community.
