About me:
The United States Junior Chamber (Jaycees) gives young people between the ages of 18 and 40 the tools they need to build the bridges of success for themselves in the areas of business development, management skills, individual training, community service, and international connections. The U.S. Junior Chamber is a non-profit corporation/organization as described under IRS code 501 (c)(4).
Established in 1920 to provide opportunities for young men to develop personal and leadership skills through service to others, the Jaycees later expanded to include women, reflecting the growing influence and leadership of women in America.
For the past 86 years, Jaycees have been a force for good in America and around the world. Jaycees helped establish AirMail services in America with Jaycee Charles Lindbergh, and have raised millions of dollars for causes such as the Muscular Dystrophy Association and the March of Dimes. They have built parks, playgrounds, hospitals, ball fields, and housing for the elderly while conducting service and support programs in thousands of communities nationwide.
Jaycees can be found in all walks of life: governmental leaders such as past Presidents Bill Clinton and Gerald Ford, business tycoons such as Domino’s Pizza mogul Tom Monaghan, registered nurse and former Miss America Kaye Lani Rae Rafko-Wilson, sports heroes like basketball great Larry Bird – name the field and Jaycees can be found at the forefront.
With the focus of the nation on volunteerism, from the smallest towns to the largest cities, the Jaycees are enlarging areas of opportunity for young people.
Who I'd like to meet: We would like to meet people between the ages of 18 - 41 who are looking for more in life.
Who Are the Jaycees???
We support what our communities needs not some huge faceless organization. If a neighboor family house burned down and they had no insurance we could do Local projects to help them. We also do State projects and National projects.
Think globally. Act locally!
We help the individuals in our organization acquire skills not available anywhere else. (see competitions blog)
We have no political or religious orientation - we are open to everyone our age (18 - 40) committed to success.
By participating in projects that interest you, you will gain an inner satisfaction that results in helping others. Plus, you have the opportunity to better your professional self through business development seminars at conventions, management skills training, individual training, community service, international connections, and networking within the group.
