FORT LAUDERDALE, FL – February 28, 2025 – Danto Builders proudly announces that Debbie Danto, Chief Operating Officer, has been appointed as the 2025 Chair of the Board for the Greater Fort Lauderdale Chamber of Commerce. Debbie was officially installed during the Chamber’s 115th Annual Meeting on February 21, 2025, in front of an audience of more than 350 business leaders, community members, and stakeholders.
A Visionary Leader in Business and Community Development
As COO of Danto Builders, Debbie Danto has played an instrumental role in shaping South Florida’s commercial construction landscape. Alongside her husband, Craig Danto, she has led projects in diverse sectors including commercial, aviation, hospitality, healthcare, multifamily, retail, government, and industrial. As a Fort Lauderdale general contractor, her relentless commitment to quality, integrity, and relationship-building has been the foundation of the company’s success.
Beyond her work in construction and development, Debbie is a passionate advocate for economic growth, workforce development, and heart health. She has been an active voice in the Chamber for years, fostering connections that drive business success and strengthen the local economy.
The Power of Building Relationships
During her keynote address at the Annual Meeting, Debbie emphasized the importance of collaboration within the Chamber and the Fort Lauderdale business community:
“Your talents, expertise, and support are essential. Together, we form a powerful network united by a shared mission: to develop and connect our partners for economic growth.”
Reflecting on her own journey, she noted that she initially sought a return on investment when she joined the Chamber—but she gained something far greater: meaningful relationships. These connections have provided unparalleled value, both professionally and personally. As Chair, Debbie is committed to helping every member experience that same level of success through relationship-building.
2025 Vision: A Chamber Focused on Its Members
Under Debbie’s leadership, the Chamber’s 2025 initiatives will be driven by member feedback and centered on three key priorities:
● Strengthening Councils – Led by Dr. Ty Richardson, this initiative will enhance collaboration and business opportunities among members.
● Elevating Events & Engagement – Under the leadership of Milissa Milroy of The Galleria Mall, the Chamber will increase the value and impact of networking events.
● Amplifying Brand & Member Visibility – Anthony Santana of Hardcore Advertising and Chris Savage of Savage Global Marketing will lead efforts to promote the Chamber’s benefits and member businesses.
Additionally, the Chamber has reactivated the Strategic Planning Committee, led by Dr. Alec Bogdanoff of Brizaga, to drive long-term initiatives and ensure sustainable, profitable growth for members and the organization.
