About our Junior League

The Junior League of Lynchburg is an organization of women committed to promoting voluntarism, developing the potential of women and improving the community through the action of trained volunteers. Its purpose is exclusively educational and charitable.

We prioritize our focus into these main areas:

WOMEN
CHILDREN
HEALTH
ARTS & HISTORIC PRESERVATION
THE ENVIRONMENT

Our newest community programming focuses on healthy lifestyles and wellness for children and their families. We have formed a community-wide coalition of partners to address the issues of childhood obesity and family wellness. Our partnership is called “Smart Moves.” We offer programs, seminars, health fairs, and legislative action on these issues throughout the calendar year.

The Junior League of Lynchburg celebrates 80 years of community service this year.

In the spring of 2007, the active membership and Leadership of the JLL unanimously decided to sell its property in the Rivermont Avenue Historic District and relocate its base of operations to Downtown Lynchburg.
