Welcome to the Cedar Rapids Jaycees

Welcome! Thanks for visiting to check out our Cedar Rapids Jaycees chapter. We’re a non-profit organization focusing on community outreach and professional development for local young professionals.

If you’re looking for professional development, community engagement, and networking, you’ve come to the right place and we’d love to connect!

If you’re a community organization looking for local support, we’d love to help. Submit a message if you have an idea or need we can assist you with.

Please feel free to reach out to me personally if you have any questions at president@cr-jaycees.com.

Who We Are

We are a group of young business professionals who seek opportunities for leadership development, individual growth, networking, friendship, and community service.

What we believe - The Jaycee Creed

by C. William Brownfield

We Believe… That faith in God gives meaning and purpose to human life;

That the brotherhood of man transcends the sovereignty of nations;

That economic justice can best be won by free men through free enterprise;

That government should be of laws rather than of men;

That earth’s great treasure lies in human personality;

And that service to humanity is the best work of life.

Why do you enjoy the CR Jaycees?

"I love that I get opportunities not only to serve my community and connect with other local non-profits, but also the ability to push myself and develop professionally all while meeting like-minded people who turn into close friends."

What we do

The Cedar Rapids Jaycees serve the community through projects and fundraisers. The proceeds we receive from these events, are donated back to other organizations within our community. It is through these projects that our members learn new leadership skills and how to collectively work together to achieve something bigger than ourselves.

Some of our well known events include Toys for Tots, Uptown Friday Nights, Festival of Trees, Local Emergency Officials BBQ, Trunk of Treat and scholarship program.
