Why is the Little Black Dress Initiative Important?

For over 100 years, the Junior League of Birmingham has been a positive force for change in Jefferson and Shelby County. The JLB’s approximately 2,000 trained volunteers collectively donate more than 40,000 hours of direct community service in Birmingham each year. The JLB’s 22 community projects address some of Birmingham’s most critical issues, including food insecurity, health education to the at-risk community, life skills for families in transition, and literacy.

This year the JLB will focus its fundraising on one of our impact areas: Mitigating Crisis and Promoting Safety with an emphasis on our Anti-Human Trafficking Committee. 

Thank you for your generosity and for supporting our community endeavors to bring about positive change in the lives of those around us!
