Krish-Nee Poorun, 2017 Local Secretary

I was recognized as Most Participative Aspiring member in third quarter 2016 and recently I got the opportunity to climb up among 2017 Local Board members. For me it shall be a great honour and pleasure serving the members as Local Secretary next year. I will seize this chance and do my best for the organization. My first project was Peace is Possible campaign and now am Project Director of Active Citizenship Framework project.

I believe the best way to invest in yourself and your future is to get involved and contribute as best you can and JCI is an opening to further yourself while making a real difference. For me if someone wants to prove her/his best I would recommend the person to join JCI since it is the right platform to achieve something.
