"Twin Star" wins 2006 JCI-Philippines Area V e-awards competition

Three of the four project entries of the JCI General Santos "Twin Star" in the JCI Philippines electronic awards (Bidbook) competition garnered the top honors in the recently concluded 2006 JCI Philippines 26th Mindanao Area Conference held on September 1-3, 2006 at Pacific Heights Hotel, Cotabato City.

The three projects, Operation LIMP-CARE (Lame Integration and Management Program thru Crutches Assistance and Rehabilitation Enhancement), Bayanihan Sa Bakawan, a Mangrove Rehabilitation Project at Brgy. Minanga, and www.twinstarjcsonline.tk, the chapter website, romped away with major awards in the Assistance to the Handicapped Project, Best Environmental Program and Best LOM Website, respectively. The other LOM entry, 2006 Jaycee Week, ended as a runner up in the Best Jaycee Week program category all over Mindanao.

The formal yet emotional JCI Philippines Mindanao e-awards nights, which was graced by Mayor JV Ejercito, 1998 JCIP National President, is a prelude to the Philippine Jaycees National Convention which will be held on October 12-15, 2006 at Ubic, Olongapo City.

JCI General Santos "Twin Star", a 59-year old multi-awarded chapter has been known for the conduct of worthwhile projects in the city and in nearby provinces.
