Welcome!


President's Message

On behalf of The Junior League of Atlanta, Inc., I welcome you to our website!  For over 90 years, the Junior League of Atlanta has played a pivotal role in shaping our community.  As an organization, we remain committed to empowering our members to serve as catalysts for positive change throughout Atlanta, working collaboratively with 98 non-profit organizations.  Last year alone, the Junior League of Atlanta contributed more than 150,000 volunteer hours valued at more than $2,100,000 to community organizations and programs that enable women and children to become self-sufficient. Combined, our volunteers and funding have impacted the lives of more than 650,000 women and children.

It is truly an honor for me to serve as the 2007-2008 President of The Junior League of Atlanta.  As Helen Keller said years ago, "Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much."  The Junior League of Atlanta, an organization of over 4,000 members, is a group of dedicated women who weave together our personal and professional lives with our commitment to volunteerism.  For over 90 years, we have been fulfilling our mission to promote volunteerism, develop the potential of women, and improve the community through the effective action and leadership of trained volunteers.  To do this, each member takes time from her busy life to ensure the success of our efforts in Atlanta.  This year alone, our active members will work with over 30 community organizations to directly impact the lives of women and children.  We will help women and their families break the cycle of homelessness, which many times may also involve issues of addiction.  Many members will focus their efforts on helping young and school-age children overcome educational barriers imposed by disability, poverty or prejudice.  We will help seniors live fulfilling, independent lives.  Numerous volunteers will concentrate on aiding women and children who face significant health crises caused by short-term or chronic illness.  And, other members will advocate for legislative change on a variety of issues that impact women and children.  Whatever we do, we do so to transform our community to be its best.

The Junior League of Atlanta has been, and will continue to be, an instrumental force for positive change in our community.  Our organization of diverse women relies not only on the volunteer hours of our members, but the donations and sponsorship of those throughout Atlanta.  In turn, we can continue our support of the wide variety of programs that empower women and children to become self-reliant.  I thank each member for the commitment she makes to be a part of the Junior League of Atlanta -- I am truly inspired by your passion and dedication.   Please enjoy browsing our website and learning more about the Junior League of Atlanta, our numerous programs and community involvement.  I also invite you to learn how you can become an integral part of the Junior League of Atlanta family, either through membership or sponsorship.
