The reason I joined the JLM : When I joined the Junior League , my reasons were because it was a good opportunity to get involved in the community and to meet new people . Ten years later , I have come to realize that the Junior League is so much more than meeting new people . The League is a community in itself . It is a family of women with the same visions and goals . We are constantly working on gaining the confidence to become better leaders , stronger women , and , in one way or another , working towards ways to improve our community . With that said , my reasons have changed . I joined the League to be part of a family and group of amazing women working toward the same goals .
