Story
The Junior League is committed to tackling the immediate impact of COVID-19 as well as continuing to deliver our long standing community programs.
While this is still an emerging issue, the challenges facing those in poverty are already increasing as we see growing demands on the foodbanks and additional needs for the homeless and those in refuges.
For 4 days, I will be wearing a black dress as a symbol of solidarity in times of crisis; in recognition of all that London’s volunteers & essential workers are doing; and to raise funds for those working with London’s most vulnerable. 100 % of your donations will go directly to our community partners and programs fighting poverty.
Could you give the equivalent of your daily commute, weekly coffee fund or a dinner out? Together we can make a difference.
We are a UK chapter of the Association of Junior Leagues International. There are 291 Junior Leagues in the US, the UK, Canada and Mexico, with over 150,000 members. Together we are one of the most impactful volunteer organisations in the world, and we’re 100% powered by women!
Each year, JLL members donate 20,000 hours of volunteer service in the London community, focusing particularly on poverty and its effects. Our volunteers work with various community partners who provide education and employment support for those in need.
