A unique behind-the-scenes look at the fastest-growing community in Southern Arizona!
Impact Marana, a program of the Marana Chamber of Commerce (MCC), is an immersive experience taking a dedicated cohort of business and community leaders through an in-depth behind the scenes look at the many dynamic sectors of the Marana community.
