About <strong>JCI</strong><br />

Junior Chamber International (<strong>JCI</strong>) is a global membership-based nonprofit<br />

organization of young active citizens ages 18 to 40 who are<br />

dedicated to creating positive change in their communities. Through<br />

projects in more than 5,000 communities across more than 100<br />

countries, members seek targeted solutions to local problems, creating<br />

a global impact.<br />

The <strong>JCI</strong> movement started on October 13, 1915 by one active citizen,<br />

Henry Giessenbier, who had a passion for positive change. Since then,<br />

millions of other young active citizens have united together to create<br />

sustainable impact in their community.<br />

<strong>JCI</strong> Headquarters is located in St. Louis, Missouri, U.S.A., where the<br />

first local organization was founded. The headquarters operation is led<br />

by <strong>JCI</strong> Secretary General Arrey Obenson. Each year, members from all<br />

over the globe come together at the <strong>JCI</strong> World Congress. At this event,<br />

<strong>JCI</strong>’s critical mass of young people united to share experiences,<br />

understand the interconnectedness of our world and facilitate<br />

international cooperation.<br />

J C I S T R U C T U R E &<br />

<strong>JCI</strong> also hosts four regional conferences each year: Africa and the<br />

Middle East, Asia and the Pacific, the Americas and Europe. At these<br />

conferences, <strong>JCI</strong> conducts its affairs, hosts training, and gives members<br />

the opportunities to address global issues and show their commitment to<br />

become socially responsible leaders.<br />

<strong>JCI</strong> Vision, <strong>JCI</strong> Mission, and <strong>JCI</strong> Creed were<br />

recited in unison during 2018 <strong>JCI</strong> Kuala<br />
