Dear Jaycee Chapter Leader,
Greetings and best regards from the United States Junior Chamber of Commerce Foundation. Thank you and congratulations for your service and support to your community and Jaycee members.
The USJCC Foundation Board of Directors is composed of Jaycee leaders who served at nearly every level of our organization. Chapter Presidents, District & Regional Directors, State Presidents, National Vice Presidents, National Presidents and JCI International Presidents. We are committed to our wonderful organization and serve to empower and support young people and directly to your Chapter’s efforts and programs.
We stand ready to provide financial support and grants to your chapter. The grants are to fund your community projects, serving the local community and to assist your membership efforts to maintain and strengthen your Chapters membership. Strength in numbers is an important factor in the success of a project and Chapter.
Recently, the USJCC Foundations has handed out grants to numerous chapters for example: Chatham, IL – Backpack for Kids; Lansing, MI – Blankets for Cancer Patients; DuBois, PA – Scholarship Golf sponsorship; Winston-Salem, NC – Care Bags for Domestic Violence Victims; Spartanburg, SC – Halloween Community Events; Maui, HI – Wildfire disaster; Houston International, TX – Hurricane Disaster Recovery; Hannibal, MO – Tom Sawyer Days; New Braunfels, TX – 90 trees for 90 Years. These re just a small example of the many Jaycee Chapters that have applied and received grants for the local communities we serve.

In Jaycee Spirit,
