The Loudoun County Chamber of Commerce held its Annual Meeting and Community Leadership Awards on Wednesday, Jan. 27, honoring some of the people and businesses making a difference in Loudoun.
In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the annual meeting usually a large, dressy affair in a ballroom at the National Conference Center was held virtually this year.
“While this virus may keep us apart, it cannot keep us from celebrating, and it won’t keep us from honoring the true heroes of this Chamber and our community,” said Loudoun Chamber President and CEO Tony Howard.
And also in light of the pandemic, this year the Chamber announced a new award: the #StrongerTogether award, which marked five outstanding community initiatives to alleviate the human and economic suffering in Loudoun the virus has caused.

The Loudoun Chamber has announced the 2021 Loudoun Community Leadership Awards finalists. The awards honor businesses and community leaders who have demonstrated exemplary leadership and commitment to support the strength and vitality of the Loudoun community.
In its eighth year, the program this year will place a special emphasis on the response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Early in the COVID pandemic, the Loudoun Chamber understood that our community needed to work together, with strength, selflessness and unity, in order to endure this public health crisis. The response we have seen from our businesses, nonprofits and residents to this crisis has been nothing short of extraordinary, as Loudouners responded with remarkable generosity and sacrifice. That is the spirit that define the Loudoun Community Leadership Awards,” Chamber President & CEO Tony Howard said.
