Title

JUNIOR CHAMBER INTERNATIONAL - MANILA (PHILIPPINES)

Description

The Manila Jaycees is the oldest leadership development organization in the Philippines and in Asia. It was formed primarily to fill the need of properly channeling the energies and idealism of the Filipino youth into an organization that undertakes activities and projects that would eventually redound to the benefit of the community, as a whole. The organization was formed on the first organizational meeting held on December 20, 1947 at the Champagne Room of the Manila Hotel.

The Manila Jaycees is the first and premier Chapter in the Philippines and in Asia, which contributed to the growth of other chapters all over the Asia-Pacific region. The Chamber's very first project, the cleaning up of the City of Manila from the debris of World War II, immediately propelled the Manila Jaycees into national prominence that not only attracted scions from prominent families all over the country to join, but also made the organization a major player in government policy-making.

The Manila Jaycees is an association formed to develop the leadership abilities of young men, aged 18 to 40, through community service activities. In the Jaycees, one learns to interact proficiently with fellow members, many of whom assume high positions in government and business. It is also in the Jaycees that many learn how to speak well in public, conduct meetings, motivate peers, campaign effectively, communicate ideas skillfully, deal with all sorts of people, and organize a gamut of worthy projects that would benefit the community at large. Membership in the Manila Jaycees is open to everyone, regardless of nationality or creed, for as long as he belongs to the 18-36 age bracket (inclusive) and possesses good moral character.
