So what exactly is JCI?
In your twenties and thirties? Trying to balance a career and a social life? Your spare time is precious.
So why waste it and limit yourself? Instead why not try something different towards achieving something more substantial and worthwhile?
Fancy some self-development to become better informed and even engaged in issues that matter to people like you? Could you benefit from gently learning a few new skills (“from assertiveness to yoga”) for practical use in your life and job? Are you interested in testing your potential, finding out if you have hidden talents? Maybe your current job just doesn't offer 'hands-on' experience in areas like budgeting, marketing, people skills, event management, sponsorship…? How about the satisfaction of giving something back by getting involved in the Community? Could you use an opportunity to 'network' with useful contacts in Waterford and much further afield? Or at the very least would you just like to enjoy a more varied social life?
Sounds right up your street? Then give JCI a go. If you like the sound of new challenges or just meeting new faces you too can get involved. You may even be able to influence the direction JCI Waterford takes. And no, you don't have to be a business person...that's just one area we offer opportunities in.
This organisation exists because involvement in our activities - Personal, Professional, Community and Social - particularly our projects - is good for both the individual who undergoes new experiences and (either directly or in the long-term) for wider society which benefits as a consequence.
