The Billings Jaycees is a leadership organization that represents the active voice of young adults, a The U.S.

The Billings Jaycees is a leadership organization that represents the active voice of young adults, ages 18-40, in the Billings community. From leadership development and community engagement, members become stronger leaders and have a bigger impact on our community than ever before. We pride ourselves on being an organization that focuses on personal and professional development through civic eng

agement. The Billings Jaycees is a part of a large Jaycees organization. The United States Junior Chamber (Jaycees) gives young people between the ages of 18 and 40 the tools they need to build the bridges of success for themselves in the areas of business development, management skills, individual training, community service, and international connections. Junior Chamber is a non-profit corporation/organization as described under IRS code 501

Established in 1920 to provide opportunities for young men to develop personal and leadership skills through service to others, the Jaycees later expanded to include women, reflecting the growing influence and leadership of women in America. For the past 86 years, Jaycees have been a force for good in America and around the world. Jaycees helped establish AirMail services in America with Jaycee Charles Lindbergh, and have raised millions of dollars for causes such as the Muscular Dystrophy Association and the March of Dimes. They have built parks, playgrounds, hospitals, ball fields, and housing for the elderly while conducting service and support programs in thousands of communities nationwide. Jaycees can be found in all walks of life: governmental leaders such as past Presidents Bill Clinton and Gerald Ford, business tycoons such as Domino’s Pizza mogul Tom Monaghan, registered nurse and former Miss America Kaye Lani Rae Rafko-Wilson, sports heroes like basketball great Larry Bird – name the field and Jaycees can be found at the forefront. With the focus of the nation on volunteerism, from the smallest towns to the largest cities, the Jaycees are enlarging areas of opportunity for young people.

Hey you!! Do you have any fun photos of the Billings Jaycees in action over the years? Maybe you're a former member and you have some great memories hiding on your phone. We'd love for you to share them with us! You can email pictures to [email protected]

The Billings Jaycees have been active in the Billings community for many years. After the original chapter ceased operations, it was revived in September 2009. Since then, young, active citizens have given their time and talents to this organization with the purpose of improving our community.

Members joined for different reasons throughout the years. Some stayed for a year or two, while others remained a part of the organization for the full 15 years. Regardless of the tenure, all members have left their mark on the Billings community. Numerous events have been organized, funds have been raised and donated, and lives have been changed.

It is with a very heavy heart that we announce the intended closure of the Billings Jaycees chapter, effective June 30, 2025. As with all non-profit organizations, we rely on the gift of time from our members. We understand and respect that time is becoming more and more precious, and there simply isn’t enough to go around. This decision was not taken lightly, and multiple discussion sessions were held prior to a membership vote.

Over the next three months, the remaining chapter members will work with some local organizations to take over a few of your favorite events, we will responsibly distribute the remaining funds to aligned organizations, and most importantly, we will celebrate all of the work that has been done over the past 15 years.

We want to thank all current and former members for their dedication to this organization, the amazing community partners that have helped to support us, and the continued support of the Billings community, friends and family. Questions regarding this closure can be directed to [email protected].
