The 2024-2025 Junior Auxiliary of Columbus Crown Club .
The Junior Auxiliary of Columbus Crown Club is a service-based organization that is composed of 32 high school sophomores and juniors . These incredible young ladies , selected through a competitive application process , are impressive representatives of our local high schools . They are led by a board of Crown Club members and are advised by a committee of active Junior Auxiliary of Columbus members .
Our goal is that Crown Club members grow through service to others by participating in opportunities presented through this organization . The program develops leadership , volunteerism , and fosters an interest in the social , economic , educational , civic and cultural conditions around its members . Crown Club meets monthly where they volunteer in a variety of capacities , hear from community leaders , and plan and implement their own service project . An existing project of Junior Auxiliary of Columbus called S . T . A . R . S . ( Students Talking and Rehearsing for Success ) has
