Story and Mission
Junior League of Mobile Inc ., is an organization of women whose mission is to advance women ’ s leadership for meaningful community impact through volunteer action , collaboration and training .
In 1931 , the Mobile Charity League underwent a significant transformation , evolving into the Junior League of Mobile ( JLM ) through its affiliation with the Association of the Junior Leagues of America . Since our inception , JLM has spearheaded numerous legacy projects leaving a lasting positive impact on our community . Some notable initiatives include the Gulf Coast Exploreum Hands- On Science Learning Center , Child Advocacy Center , United Cerebral Palsy and many more .
An annual highlight for JLM is the Christmas Jubilee fundraiser held every November . This event not only supports our community partners but also contributes to funding essential programs such as the Diaper Bank , Community Assistance Fund , The Young Women Community Leadership Scholarship , Adopt-a-School program and many more .
As we embark on the journey of our 2024-2025 provisional class , we extend a warm invitation to like-minded women who share our passion for community service and making a meaningful impact . JLM is actively seeking individuals who are dedicated to creating positive change and contributing to our legacy of service . Applications for prospective members are open from January to May , and we encourage women with a shared commitment to community betterment to apply and join us in making a difference .
