The Junior Service League of Beaufort began in the spring of 2005 by a small group of former Junior League members along with other young women concerned, active and involved in the Beaufort community. Since its inception, more than 180 women ages 22-50 have been members of the league. Over the past six years, the women of JSLB have assisted numerous local nonprofits in a variety of ways from direct service to major fundraising. Earlier this month, JSLB was recipient of the Outstanding Non-Profit Civitas Award from the Beaufort Regional Chamber of Commerce.
JSLB is currently accepting applications for membership in the 2011-2012 league year to begin in September. Service projects for the coming year include working closely with the Child Abuse Prevention Association (CAPA), Citizens Opposed to Domestic Abuse (CODA) and The Blood Alliance.
