The Junior League of Greenwich (JLG) is an organization of nearly 700 women committed to promoting voluntarism, developing the potential of women and improving the community through the effective action and leadership of trained volunteers.

The Junior League of Greenwich was chartered in February 1959; we have continued to serve and grow this community for 58 years.  The Junior League is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization.

Interested in becoming a Member?  The JLG provides opportunities for women to develop skills allowing them to be highly effective volunteers.  The JLG’s membership includes executives, community leaders, entrepreneurs, mothers, and professionals and welcomes all women who are at least 21 years of age and interested in making a positive impact in the community.  By joining the Junior League, Members have opportunities to develop their leadership potential, obtain valuable skills, and utilize personal development training while serving the needs of the Greenwich community.  

The Junior League of Greenwich has played a major role in designing and establishing a wealth of services for the community. While the JLG’s role may no longer be directly visible, many of the services that have touched the lives of Greenwich residents were conceived, initiated and implemented by the League. The JLG administers projects for approximately 2 to 10 years, usually turning them over to an existing agency or organization. Some projects become independent entities.
