Title
Junior League of Memphis
Description
The Junior League of Memphis has always been an organization that isn't afraid to roll up its sleeves and get things done.
Consider the very first meeting of the organization. In 1922, 17 young women gathered at the home of Mrs. McKay Van Vleet. Their chief objective was to elect the first officers of the Junior League of Memphis. But they saved that task for last. After all, there were community needs to be addressed: $100 to Cheerfield Farm; $25 to the blind; $15 to a local orphanage. All motions carried.
The last order of business was the election of the first officers of a local branch of The Association of Junior Leagues of America, an organization that had been founded just one year earlier. That motion also carried and a long legacy began--a legacy of women reaching their full potential by giving millions of dollars and just as much of their time to improve the quality of lives of Memphians.
