85-85-85 Annual Appeal Campaign

What better way to support the organization you love, than with a contribution to the Junior League of Portland's Annual Appeal. Gifts of all sizes are greatly appreciated!

In September, the Junior League of Portland celebrated the 85th anniversary of its founding. This was an exciting and special way to officially kick-off our year and was only made possible because hundreds of women have been a part of this wonderful organization throughout the past eight and a half decades.

Think of how different the landscape of Greater Portland would be without the Junior League. The projects our members have founded or helped to develop over the years have been life-altering. To name a few: The Children's Theater of Maine, the Children's Museum of Maine, Center for Grieving Children, Kids in Safe Seats Initiative, Beacon Teen Center, Kids First Center, and our most recent Signature Project in collaboration with 3Community Counseling Center, the Trauma Intervention Program.

What is the 85-85-85 CAMPAIGN?

It is a campaign designed with a simple goal in mind: 85 Junior League Members will contribute $85 (or more) in celebration of our 85 years of service to the community.

As a special thank you, if you join in the 85-85-85 CAMPAIGN, you will be invited to a celebratory luncheon on April 11, 2008 at Maine Medical Center3 Research Institute in Scarborough. Guest speaker will bee Debbie Smith, a member of the Association of Junior Leagues international's board of directors. We are honored to have Debbie and AJLI support and help celebrate out 85th anniversary and our special 85-85-85 CAMPAIGN. The luncheon has been donated to the Junior League, so 100 percent of your contribution will support the mission of the JLP!
