Community Projects

Over the years, The Junior League of Montgomery has participated in more community projects than we can count. We provide volunteers and funding to area non-profit agencies for the benefit and enrichment of the Montgomery community and the personal development and education of our League Members. We also offer volunteer support to agencies who need a few extra hands to accomplish their missions.  To find out more about the various programs we're involved in for the 2009-2010 year, please read on!

American Humanics Program at AUM

The Junior League of Montgomery partners with the AUM Humanics Program to host a Christmas Party in early December for 40 children between the ages of 3 and 6.  The children are chosen from the United Way's Success by Six program that operates in the Chisholm area.

Bridge Builders

  

Bridge Builders is designed to develop from among area high school students a group of future leaders who can lay aside individual, social, economic and cultural differences and work for the benefit of all. In its inaugural year, the program consists of 50 high school juniors recruited from area public and private schools, plus faith based and community organizations.  While the program runs a full calendar year, a major portion of the program is a summer camp that will be held at Huntingdon College from July 23rd through July 28th.  League volunteers help coordinate summer camp activities.
