Rod John Pandili, regional vice president at JCI Davao Region, invited Davaoeños, including non-members, to attend their skill development training posted on their social media pages.
In Davao Region, the organization initiated a community outreach, highlighted by the Davao Region Bazaar on April 22, followed by a trivia night on April 23 at Magic Mic Family KTV, and other social events such as a billiards night that promote interaction while highlighting advocacies.
JCI aims to empower entrepreneurs through its business forum by providing guidance, support, and opportunities.
“We really wanted to help entrepreneurs in Davao City through the business forum. So, we are hoping that through this crisis we are experiencing, we can empower them,” he said.
