Welcome to the JLE

We're women building better communities

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

We have trained women to be effective community volunteers for over 80 years. Through our numerous Community Projects, we have left a lasting legacy in our community. These projects include The Calgary and Edmonton Railway Station Museum, Kids in the Kitchen, Skills for Youth Kitchen at Youth Emergency Shelter, living room at Kids Kottage, the Canadian Native Friendship Centre, Books for Babies, the Resource Centre for Voluntary Organizations, Ronald McDonald House, the Volunteer Centre of Edmonton and WIN House.

Our focus area is children, youth and families at risk and through our annual Community Assistance Fund Grant and Community Projects, we continue the legacy of serving the community. When our projects are complete and we as Junior Leaguers hear "this is better than Christmas" from a young child. Or "Now this place feels like a home" from a social worker and "this is more than we ever expected" from a teenager, we know we have built a better community and laid the foundation for real lasting change.

We hope that you will consider membership in the League. Not only will you have an opportunity to effect positive change within our community, but you will also grow personally through the training, networking and friendship membership offers.
