We’re Focused on What Matters Most Right Now in Charleston 

At the Junior League of Charleston, WV we live in the moment. To us, that means adjusting our focus according to our community’s most pressing needs. Our work is always evolving, and that keeps us on our toes, striving for progress, and preparing to take on whatever comes next.  

Our goal is to help women in the Charleston area develop civic leadership skills through the work they do, then put those talents to work in the communities that need it. Our current focus of children and women’s health issues gives our members the opportunities to grow, while positively impacting the communities where they live and work.  

We’re Creating Fulfilling Leadership Opportunities Throughout Charleston and the Kanawha Valley 

The Junior League of Charleston offers so much more than local volunteering opportunities! Our League of leaders creates real change by advancing social activism-focused projects that directly benefit the communities of Charleston. By giving women the tools to lead, educating them about their communities’ needs, and helping them put their unique brand of creativity and skill to work, Junior League of Charleston is making a big impact on childhood food insecurity.  

We’re Transforming Charleston Communities By Challenging the Status Quo 

No matter what we’re currently focusing on, the Junior League of Charleston’s work centers around improving our local communities through effective action and leadership. We have identified childhood food insecurity as the most pressing issue in our community right now, and we are helping local women take action to resolve it. So far this year, we have provided over 1,000 ‘Backpack Buddy’ kits to local school children ensuring they have something to eat on the weekend.
