2024 Financials

CHEST’s financial goals for 2024 were comprehensive, focusing on growth through increased membership, attendance at the Annual Meeting, sponsorships, new educational offerings, and more. Despite setting ambitious targets, CHEST achieved remarkable success in 2024, surpassing its financial objectives with a positive operating margin of $2 million. This success was largely due to the CHEST Annual Meeting in Boston, which recorded the highest attendance of any CHEST meeting to date.
