The Makati Jaycees (JCI Makati) launch PINC – POSITIVE IMPACT ON NATION’S CHANGE, its flagship program with the City Government of Pasay to address the 17 areas of the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals through a weeklong citywide outreach program.
PINC’s holistic services will start on November 12 and will run until Nov 17, with three key developmental projects in three different venues and areas of Pasay City. The series of activities will culminate with the PINC Congress on Nov 18 at the Cuneta Astrodome.
This massive information campaign expects to gather more than 5,000 students from various high schools and colleges from around the city so they can learn a wide array of educational topics from gender and sexuality to livelihood and financial literacy.
Spearheaded by JCI Makati and the City Government of Pasay, this major citywide affair will be made possible through the support of the National Youth Commission and Arellano University alongside a host of major corporate sponsors and private partnerships.
