After several years of considering joining Junior League, I've finally took the leap and am now in the New Member Cohort. The reason I really wanted to join Junior League was to make an impact in the community with philanthropy. I miss my Alpha Phi Omega service fraternity days of volunteerism and what a great organization to be a part of...they're established, have the volunteer opportunities right there, you just need to take part! It's also a great way to meet people if you are new to the area. I've been here for 10 years now, so I'm not necessarily on League to make friends, but there are some kind hearted gals there! Plus what got me was their new focus, elementary readiness! This is a definite need and holds close in my heart, as I have 2 kids (almost 6 & 4). Everything that JL does, is to better their mission.
One of the ways in which Junior League raises funds is with their New to You Sale! This is an excellent opportunity to shop name brand items at amazing prices!! Basically JL members have donated tons of their items they can part with to this sale. The date is 11/1 from 8-3 at the Fort Wayne National Guard Armory (130 West Cook Rd).
So, what are you waiting for?! Bring
You won't want to miss this event!!
