STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — The Staten Island Chamber of Commerce recently hosted its Leading Ladies Collective closing celebration at San Jeronimo Restaurant & Bakery in Port Richmond, welcoming more than 50 women from Staten Island’s business, nonprofit, and civic communities for an evening of connection and celebration.
