Q A
ALEXANDRIA JAYCEES
Why is giving back to the community important?
Giving back to the community is important because it makes the organization feel like they are doing a good deed in the community. As a chapter, we do many projects that offer the parents and kids to participate from our big event called Ole Oppe Fest, which is the kick off to summer, to our smaller projects for kids like our Sandbox Fill, Easter Egg My Yard fundraiser and Pitch, Hit and Run.
Q A
What is the priority for your organization?
The main priority of the Alexandria Jaycees is to provide development opportunities that empower young people to create positive change. When
attending our events or chairing a project, you learn about yourself that you can do this and know that you are not alone. You are able to reach out to the other members in the organization and they are able to answer the questions that you may have.
Q A
In what ways does your organization give back?
The Alexandria Jaycees is a service organization that works to support and give back to the community through hosting events including Ole Oppe Fest and volunteering for local fundraisers. We have helped with an Easter Egg Hunt through the United Methodist Church and we have teamed up with Calvary Church for the Backpack Attack and Meals from the Heart.
Promoting prosperity and optimizing opportunity in the Alexandria region.
