Community events afford members
numerous
opportunities to serve worthy
causes. Participation can involve chairing or co-chairing
projects, fund-raising
activities for a charity, or
volunteerism at a project. Beneficiaries include hospitals,
schools, charity
organizations and countless other
causes.
In recent years, the Jaycees have
organized events such
as the Buffalo Beach Ball to
benefit the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation and assisted other
events such as Fall Fix-Up
at YMCA Camp Weona, Children's
Hospital Halloween
Party, Variety Club of Buffalo
Phone-A-Thon, Big-Brother
Big Sister Bowl-A-Thon, Christmas
caroling at nursing
homes, American Diabetes Golf
Tournament, and Kidney Foundation Dart Tournament.
These events are just waiting
for an enthusiastic member
to make them happen. Many of our
projects have strong track records and we have veteran members
who are ready
and
willing to assist new members in chairing projects.
There are
many ways for you to get involved in community development activities, and the
most rewarding is through
project participation. All a project
needs is an enthusiastic chairperson and excitement from the
general membership to
lead the way.
Your interest in helping others
and your efforts to be involved will combine to make you a part
of a great winning team!
