JUNIOR LEAGUE COMMUNITY SERVICE OPPORTUNITIES For more information regarding the following community service opportunities and volunteer programs please contact Allyson Monferdini, Community Service Chair, at (803) 727-5579 or Community Service Info. The league chooses one family per year to support with donations of food, clothing, etc. League members will address this family's specific requirements throughout the year as well as provide special gifts during holidays.
Throughout the year, theCJWL will visit preschools and child care centers in Kershaw County conducting eye exams. At lest 2 League members must assist in these screenings. If you have time available during daytime hours, don't forget to sign up to help all of Kershaw County's children.
Last year's provisional class began this project that we will continue on certain dates throughout the year. While local foster care parents attend DSS, required classes and training, League members will provide educational fun, games and crafts for children in foster care. This project was a great success last year and we'd like to keep it going!
Belle of the Ball started as a provisional project and has become a CJWL tradition. Each year before prom time, the CJWL gathers and sorts donated formal dresses and then offers them for free to needy teens referred by area high schools. This is our chance to help teenage girls feel like "Cinderella" for a day and there are lots of opportunities to volunteer prior to and on the day of the event.
The Special Olympics in Kershaw County began again in 2007, thanks in large part to League members employed by the Kershaw County School District. Look for announcements about the Special Olympics that will take place this spring at Camden Military Academy. There will be an opportunity to volunteer for anyone seeking a position!
To support the Fine Arts Center, League members volunteer to work 2 to 3 hours shifts at the annual Blues Festival that takes place at the beginning of October. It is a fun event and all our volunteers are rewarded with free tickets to events!
