Commemorating JCI Day

How will you celebrate JCI Day this year? Commemorate the founding of JCI this December 11 with the rest of the leading global network of young active citizens.

December 11, 1944, 30 young, enthusiastic active citizens from eight countries — Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama and the United States — met in Mexico City to sign a declaration that led to the establishment of Junior Chamber International (JCI).

It was this very day, this wonderful organization's founders met up and had an agreement to contribute to the world peace. It was this very day, the idea of good citizen, a better citizen was being promoted, and being spread to all over the world. It was this very day, my beloved organization being setup.

I am going to attend a Local Organization Member's Inaugural Night or Charter Night in 2 hours time. This very new chapter is currently the largest chapter in our whole organization. We are all very proud of this new setup. After 55 years of JCI being setup, we have are going to witness a strong new chapter's beginning. This is the way I am commemorating 2009's JCI Day. How about you my friends? Are you contributing to your community as a better citizen yet? If not, this is the moment for you to take action. Be active citizen for your community. Contribute, and serve your community.

Let's create a better tomorrow.
