About Us
29 Years ….
Founded in 1993, JCS International is a consortium of global Christian relief and development organizations working together in Mongolia. We aim to see Mongolians building and restoring their families, churches and communities. We love for them to experience fullness of life and we work towards this through our many projects and placements.
We have over 50 long-term volunteers and Mongolian employees
working in the office, within projects, or with our partner organizations. Our volunteers are living in Ulaanbaatar, and Khentii, Khovd and Uvs Provinces providing their professional skills and raising funds for various projects and relief work. They all contribute to Family, Community, Environment and Social Development of Mongolia. They help to build the professional skills and personal character of those involved as employees and beneficiaries, with the aim of empowering Mongolian people to believe in their own abilities and see their own potential and worth. We believe in an interlinked approach to sustainable development and as such incorporate environmental aspects into our actions as well.
JCS continues to seek opportunities to partner with local government offices and agencies, community-based organizations, universities, colleges and training institutes, schools, and medical institutions. We believe that by working closely with our Mongolian partners we can better serve this nation.
