Our Portland chapter is part of the State of Oregon Jaycees, and affiliated with the U.S. Junior Chamber and Junior Chamber International:
- Building Friendships
- Making Connections
- Helping People
- Being a Leader
The Portland Junior Chamber (Jaycees) provides young professionals with the tools they need to build the bridges of success for themselves in the areas of business development, individual training, community service and international connections.
The Jaycee organization was established in 1920 to provide development opportunities to young professionals between the ages of 21 and 40 through service to others. Today, Jaycees have been a force for good in America and around the world for over 80 years.
Jaycees helped establish airmail services in America with Jaycee Charles Lindbergh, they’ve led the country with members Bill Clinton and Gerald Ford, grown successful businesses like Domino’s Pizza mogul Tom Monaghan, and gone down in history as sports legends, like member Larry Bird.
