The Junior League of Boca Raton, Inc. supports a wide variety of projects by providing funds and trained volunteers. The League’s present community issues include child welfare, and nonprofit support. Our volunteer work helps with these issues through the Community Garden, Nonprofit Assistance programs and the following programs.

Spirit of Giving Network (SOGN)

The Spirit of Giving is a collaborative, nonprofit organization with a focus on children and families in South Palm Beach County. It is a forum where nonprofits and community supporters share information, resources and best practices. Currently, there are more than 70 nonprofit member organizations meeting on a monthly basis. The group’s objective is to streamline the delivery of services to the community by working collaboratively to solve issues and improve operations through internal and external partnerships.

Public Affairs

The Junior Leagues of Florida State Public Affairs Committee (SPAC) has been the advocacy arm of the Junior Leagues of Florida for nearly 40 years, monitoring the state legislative process and addressing issues of political importance to our members.  The State of Florida boasts 25 Junior Leagues, with combined membership of over 11,000 women.
