2023 Projects
I-Mentor:
This is our very first-of-its-kind project. The I-Mentor project executed under the theme “mentoring resilient leaders for a changing world” seeks to encourage teamwork to inculcate team-building skills for JCI GUYANA members and youths of the community by providing them with trainings that will advance their self awareness on their image branding, job readiness, and financial responsibility.

Feeding Program:
JCI GUYANA fed close to 100 homeless persons in the streets of Georgetown under this year's theme “Providing selfless service for a changing world”. As we continue to align with our theme for 2022 JCI GUYANA intends to care for those who can not care for themselves. We are our brothers keepers.

Pre-mash BBQ:
The JCI GUYANA Pre-mash BBQ is held annually in February just before the Mashramani celebration, which means celebration after hard work. This is a day where Jaycees gather and socialize while interacting with members of the community, raising finances to offset the chapter’s expenses for upcoming community projects and outreaches.
