Congratulations to everyone who:
The Auction May Be Gone, But Our Mission Goes On!
The Junior League of Birmingham, Alabama, Inc. is an organization of women committed to promoting voluntarism, developing the potential of women, and improving communities through the effective action and leadership of trained volunteers. Its purpose is exclusively educational and charitable.
As one of the largest volunteer service organizations in Alabama, the Junior League of Birmingham has over 1000 active volunteers who contribute more than 50,000 hours of service annually. Its purpose is improving the lives of women and children by working with community agencies to deliver services and assistance to those in need. To ensure consistency and a concentrated level of service, JLB community placements focus on six areas (Community, Economic Security, Education, Health, Safety and Voluntarism) and are staffed with JLB volunteers who work in partnership with nonprofit, public and community-based organizations.
The JLB believes that effective action is accomplished through the efforts of skilled and informed volunteers. All volunteers are required to complete an intensive provisional course and thereafter choose from a wide range of training programs each year. Through these programs, volunteers acquire the skills, knowledge and empowerment to effectively serve the community.
