What Does Being a Member of the Junior League Look Like?
We’re a friendly group of women from a varied background of professions, industries, and passions. One of the things we all have in common is the desire to enhance women in our community through volunteerism, partnerships, training and other programs.
The JLS reaches out to all women age 21 and older regardless of race, color, religion, sexual orientation, disability, or national origin who possess an interest in and a commitment to voluntarism, to join our League.
Our mission: The Junior League of Sacramento is an organization of women whose mission is to advance women’s leadership for meaningful community impact through volunteer action, collaboration, and training.
In 2022, the League shifted its focus to food insecurity in the greater Sacramento area, selecting the Alchemist CDC, and Soil Born Farms and Food Literacy Center as three of its first partnerships under the new focus area, entitled “Nourishing Sacramento.”
Here’s a brief list of membership benefits:
- You can actually make a difference in the community volunteering in our many on-going programs and events.
- Contribute meaningfully and utilize your unique skill set to make Sacramento a better place to live and work.
- Each year we provide every member access to $2,700 worth of professional development trainings.
- Make and develop some of the best friendships you’ll ever have.
