Ambassadors
Our Ambassadors are the face of Fontana Chamber of Commerce!
This elite group of professionals volunteer their time to support Chamber events and members through exceptional hospitality and leadership. They also represent the Chamber through their interactions in local business, using their influence to build the Chamber’s membership base.
Ambassadors serve a crucial role in the member experience by serving as a liaison between the Chamber and its members. Ambassadors are the front line (behind Chamber staff), to provide exceptional inclusivity at networking events and our monthly luncheons.
AMBASSADOR LEADERSHIP
Our Ambassador Leadership is appointed by the Board of Directors’ Executive Committee based on feedback from the Chamber team.

Pastor Daniel Vasquez, Calvary Chapel Fontana
As the Senior Pastor at Calvary Chapel Fontana, Pastor Daniel "Dan" Vasquez has dedicated over 29 years to serving others and sharing the message of faith. His journey began with a deep commitment to the Lord, which led him to seminary school and ultimately to 18 years of pastoral experience. He takes great pride in serving as the pastor for the City of Fontana, actively engaging with the local community and the Fontana Unified School District.
Over the past decade, Pastor Dan has had the privilege of serving as the team chaplain for several high school football programs, including Summit High School, A.B. Miller High School, and Kaiser High School. He specializes in leadership development, community engagement, and mentorship, with a passion for empowering individuals to reach their full potential—both spiritually and personally.
Beyond his pastoral responsibilities, he enjoys reading the Word of God, hiking with his wife, Laura, and spending quality time with his family. He cherishes golfing with his son, going on dates with his daughter, and taking his grandchildren, baby Crew and Kalisi, to Funtana. Together, he and Laura have built a loving family over 27 years of marriage, raising two wonderful children, Aaron and Lauren, and welcoming two beautiful grandchildren.
Pastor Dan is also honored to serve as a chaplain for the Fontana Police Department, where he was recognized with the Chaplain of the Year award. His commitment to community service and leadership was further acknowledged when he was named Ambassador of the Year for 2024 by the Chamber of Commerce.
As the founder of Forge: Forging the Future, a nonprofit organization, Pastor Dan empowers young men to embrace authentic manhood and become principled leaders. The organization’s mission is to inspire the next generation through mentorship, skill development, and transformative experiences. Forge offers a two-month leadership program called Man of Steel, as well as the Steel Man triathlon competition, which promotes both personal growth and athleticism.
