We invite you to participate in social and educational events hosted by the Junior League of Tucson which support important community programming such as...

Habitat for Humanity.  The JLT membership voted at the April 2008 General Meeting to grant $10,000 to Habitat's Women Build for the 2nd year in a row.

The new 2008-09 Senior Education project will provide educational and social programming to seniors on topics focused on improving overall well-being. Potential subject matter includes education about living wills, identify theft and fraud; caregiver respite; and support for grandparents raising grandchildren.

Beginning in the fall of 2008, JLT Cares will partner with Pima Council on Aging and the Neighbors Care Alliance to provide volunteer caregiver support to independent seniors in Tucson who could use a helping hand. Activities will include friendly visits, assistance with errands, telephone reassurance, help with house or yard work, and meal delivery. The JLT will also assist Neighbors Care with organizational capacity development as they build neighbor-to-neighbor outreach groups throughout Tucson.

Character Counts is our character-building mentoring program at Van Buskirk Elementary. We are currently seeking active seniors interested in serving as mentors to 5th graders to help them learn about critical character traits over a seven-week period in spring 2009. To get more information or sign up, click here.
