After many years of service, leadership, friendship, and impact in our community, the Parkersburg Area Jaycees have made the difficult decision to officially dissolve our local chapter.
While this marks the end of a chapter, we’re incredibly proud of what the Jaycees have been able to accomplish over the years — and even more grateful for every member, volunteer, community partner, and supporter who has been a part of it. ❤️
Most importantly, we wanted the legacy of the Parkersburg Area Jaycees to continue beyond our organization.
As part of closing the chapter, our remaining funds will be placed with the Parkersburg Area Community Foundation to establish the Parkersburg Area Jaycees Endowment Fund, with the intention of continuing to support charitable needs and opportunities in Wood County, West Virginia and Washington County, Ohio.
It feels fitting that resources built through years of community involvement will continue giving back to the community that supported us for so long.
To everyone who has been part of the Parkersburg Area Jaycees over the years: thank you.
Whether you served as a member, attended an event, volunteered alongside us, partnered with us, or simply supported what we were doing, you helped make this chapter what it was.
We’re closing one chapter, but we’re proud to know the impact can continue. ❤️
