Who we are

You don’t join another network. You join a movement.

JCI is an international non-profit that, since 1915, has given young people development opportunities to create positive change.

JCI has been active in Poland since 1989. For more than 30 years, JCI Kraków has brought together entrepreneurs and active, committed people focused on growth.

Above all, we are a close-knit team of like-minded people. We often meet informally too: to talk, share experiences and have a good time.

Mission

To provide development opportunities that empower young people to create positive change.

Vision

To be the leading global network of young active citizens.

The JCI Creed · We believe

  1. That faith in God gives meaning and purpose to human life;
  2. That the brotherhood of man transcends the sovereignty of nations;
  3. That economic justice can best be won by free men through free enterprise;
  4. That government should be of laws rather than of men;
  5. That earth’s great treasure lies in human personality;
  6. And that service to humanity is the best work of life.
