Evanscorp supports Junior Chamber International Illawarra

4 December 2008

Evanscorp happy to support theory that all that glitters is gold!

JCI members gain leadership skills through various local projects and events. The local Illawarra chapter is involved in a number of programs that have won acclaim nationally including the 'Students Meet Professionals' events held at the University of Wollongong. The event provides a forum for students in specific faculties to discuss employment opportunities with local professionals working in that industry.

As JCII is a non-profit organisation, these community projects are funded through the support of local businesses and fundraising events such as the annual Christmas fundraiser.

Evanscorp recognises the benefits of programs such as Junior Chamber International in achieving these objectives and are proud to support and contribute to the development of the JCII program.

Phil Evans, Managing Director of Evanscorp, said "JCII provides a great opportunity for young professionals and entrepreneurs to kick start their careers. We are proud to be a gold sponsor of this year's event."
