Community
Since 1928, the Junior League of Greensboro (JLG) has dedicated volunteers and resources to issues facing our community. The JLG strives to create meaningful and lasting impact in the community through its membership and its efforts with community partners. Every two years the League identifies organizations to directly partner with by providing time, talents, and funds.
We’re Focused on What Matters Most Right Now in Greensboro
At the Junior League of Greensboro we live in the moment. To us, that means adjusting our focus according to our community’s most pressing needs. Our work is always evolving, and that keeps us on our toes, striving for progress, and preparing to take on whatever comes next.
Our current community goal of raising awareness of and alleviating food insecurity aims to ensure that children and families in our community have consistent access to sufficient and nutritious food, thereby promoting the health, well-being, and economic stability of our community.
Our goal is to help Greensboro women develop civic leadership skills through the work they do, then put those talents to work in the communities that need it. Our current community impact focus gives women opportunities to grow, while positively impacting the communities where they live and work.
We’re Creating Fulfilling Leadership Opportunities
The Junior League of Greensboro offers so much more than local volunteering opportunities! Our League of leaders creates real change by advancing social activism-focused projects that directly benefit the Greensboro community. By giving women the tools to lead, educating them about the needs of their community, and helping them put their unique brand of creativity and skill to work, the Junior League of Greensboro is making a big impact in Greensboro.
We’re Transforming the Greensboro Community by Challenging the Status Quo
No matter what we’re currently focusing on, the Junior League of Greensboro’s work centers around improving our local community through effective action and leadership. We have identified food insecurity as the most pressing issue in our community right now, and we are helping local women take action to resolve it.
