March 31st is just a few weeks away which means you have just a few weeks to submit Hall of Leadership nominations and Chapter Grant requests.

The Hall of Leadership is a recognition program for former Jaycees, 40 and older, who continued to use the skills learned as Jaycee to better their community. The Hall of Leadership program is held annually at Spring All-State Convention. Nominations are due by March 31st. You can reach out to any trustee on the Minnesota Jaycees Charitable Foundation with questions or ideas for former members to nominate. You can also find more information about the Hall of Leadership on the Foundation website on the Hall of Leadership tab.

Chapter Grants are a way to receive funding to run a quality project that will impact your community. While we review and issue Chapter Grant requests throughout the year, we do have a March 31st deadline to award grant requests at Spring All-State Convention. Information about the Chapter Grant request process can be found on the Foundation website on the Chapter Grant tab.

Bingo Sessions Suspended

Posted on March 16, 2020 by MNJCCF.Admin

In light of the current COVID-19 pandemic and the Minnesota Department of Health’s recommendations, the Minnesota Jaycees Charitable Foundation has decided to temporarily suspend our regularly scheduled Bingo sessions.

This decision did not come lightly, but we hope you will understand that the health and welfare of the public must be placed higher than the financial gain our organization realizes.

The duration of our suspension will coincide with the state-wide school-closing issued by Governor Walz. Therefore, the current plan will be to resume Bingo on at each site on the regularly scheduled date immediately following the reopening of the school system. The jackpot will be the same amount and limiting ball-count as it was when we suspended operations.

In addition to Social Media, you can also obtain any updates in the hand-held device app BingowsWhere.

You can find BingosWhere from their website www.bingoswhere.com/ or download it from the Apple App Store or Goolge Play.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. We look forward to seeing all of you once the schools have reopened!
