Form 990, Pt III, Line 1, Description of Mission (Continued from above):
JLSL takes a collaborative approach to solving community problems whenever possible. Partnerships are formed with community organizations through programs and co-sponsorships. Many community agencies can trace their beginnings directly to the foresight and planning of Junior League volunteers who saw a need and used the resources of the League to develop workable, long-term solutions. A few of the past collaborations and community projects include: - Girls' Club of Soulard, now known as Girls Inc., received its initial support from JLSL - Saint Louis Crisis Nursery, developed in collaboration with Deaconess Hospital and the Coalition of 100 Black Women - The Junior Kindergarten program, a forerunner of today's Head Start programs was developed in collaboration with teachers in the city of St. Louis - The largest ever inaugural Komen Race for the Cure was brought to St. Louis by the JLSL Continuing programs include: - St. Louis Family Theatre, a collaboration between the JLSL and the City of Florissant. Over twenty-five years ago the Junior League of St. Louis saw a need to introduce children to the world of live performing arts. To date, over 710,000 young people have experienced live theatre through the St. Louis Family Theatre Series in an affordable and educational way. St. Louis Family Theatre continues to make available the best nationally recognized touring professional theatres, not readily available to the St. Louis area, at heavily subsidized prices. - Developing Strong Women & Families is a Health & Resource Fair created by the Junior League of St. Louis. This event is designed to bring not-for-profit organizations from throughout the community under one roof, for one day, in order to provide underserved women access to needed services that will assist them in their personal development and to reach their full potential as women. The goal is to go beyond sharing information, to actually providing services on site.
