It was built by young people who shared the same aspiration: `The rebuilding of a new Japan is the work of young people.'' Since then, the Tokyo Junior Chamber has carried out various activities and movements based on the philosophy of "realizing a bright and prosperous society." Additionally, the Tokyo Junior Chamber is made up of members who joined freely of their own free will, regardless of race, nationality, gender, occupation, or religion. Junior Chambers in Japan base their activities on ``service to society,'' ``individual training,'' and ``friendship with the world.'' They aim for mutual enlightenment and exchange among members, cultivate a public spirit, and collaborate with the local community. We work to contribute to the development of society and actively address social issues. The students who have experienced various practical training at the Junior Chamber are active in a wide range of fields, and many graduates, including those who graduated in their 40s, are not only active as local leaders, but also produce many people who have entered the political and business world.
