The Junior League of Phoenix is a strong, committed group of women volunteers making an impact on our community. Through membership in the JLP, women enjoy:
Training for effective community leadership
- Training occurs in the areas of community program development, execution of community programming, advocacy, civic leadership, community research, event planning, fundraising, finance, public relations, electronic communications and overall personal development.
- A large number of our members go on to volunteer on community boards and lead other nonprofit organizations with the valuable skills learned from their training in the JLP.
Working, hands-on, with other women, to improve the community
- If you want to do something with your valuable time in the Valley, the JLP can help you to achieve your personal volunteer goals.
- Our community programs are developed to achieve unmet needs in Maricopa County. To see how our volunteer work impacts the quality of life in the Valley, please visit the Community Impact section of our website.
Accessing community leaders and obtaining insight into community needs and strategies for solutions
- You will have an understanding of current community needs being addressed by the JLP through our annual research and development process and community program development.
- Collaborations with civic and business leadership occur through various partnerships carried forward through projects, fundraisers, and community advisor events.
Making lifelong friendships with like-minded women
- JLP members are a dedicated and hard-working community of women. We are attorneys, nurses, accountants, event planners, marketing executives, stay at home moms, caregivers, etc. from a wide variety of backgrounds. But, we all have a passion for volunteering which binds the members of our organization together.
- As a member you will meet many interesting, talented, and intelligent women committed to making a difference in our community. You will also have the opportunity to develop relationships with numerous individuals with varied skill sets and interests.
- In addition to the enjoyment of volunteering, we are a very social crew and have fun, too!
Belonging to an international organization of passionate volunteers
- The JLP is part of something even bigger! We are a member of The Association of Junior Leagues International, Inc. (AJLI) an organization of over 160,000 members with 293 Leagues located in the United States, Canada, Mexico, and the United Kingdom. Because we are a membership organization affiliated with AJLI, any member in good standing has the benefit of being able to transfer her membership.
