Chapter 3: Affiliation
ARTICLE 3-1. AFFILIATION:
The National Organization shall be affiliated with Junior Chamber International, hereinafter referred to as “JCI” and this shall involve:
- Acceptance of the JCI Declaration of Principles and Purposes, which reads as follows:
The principles of Junior Chamber, inspired by the JCI Declaration of Principles, are based on a belief in:
- Faith in God
- The brotherhood of man
- Individual freedom and dignity
- Government of laws
- The value of human personality
- Service to humanity.
- Compliance with the Constitution of JCI insofar as this affects the National Organization.
- COMMENTS ON ARTICLE 3-1:
- Some National Organizations would prefer to include the JCI Creed in full instead of only mentioning the JCI principles. The sub point of Article 3 1 will then have to be rewritten accordingly.
"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."
