Who are the NC Jaycees?
With our Headquarters in Asheboro, NC; the North Carolina Junior Chamber (Jaycees) gives young people between the ages of 21 and 41 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.
What do the Jaycees do?
We provide the opportunity for personal development and leadership training through community service and organizational involvement. Personal growth is achieved through each set of circumstances. Every project, every meeting, every experience expands the abilities of Jaycees.
Each year the NC Jaycees give back to the community in many different ways through many different avenues. But, there are three organizations that stand out as a priority for all North Carolina Jaycees. NC Jaycee priority projects include: the Jaycee Burn Center at UNC, the Duke Cancer Center, and the Boys & Girls Homes of North Carolina.
