reflections on the past

In 1930, ninety-eight women gathered at St Mark’s Parish Hall to hear the reading of a proposed constitution and bylaws that established the Junior Service league, which in 1933 became the Junior League of Shreveport. This group of civic-minded ladies wanted to improve the community by focusing on those in need. The first major project was to organize the Shreveport Family Welfare Association, which focused on social services. This project provided social casework, the maintenance of two clothing centers for the needy, bookbinding, and Braille transcription. Shreveport Family Welfare Association formed the nucleus of the Community Chest and today it is called the United Way.

What began as a small collaboration eighty years ago has blossomed into the 800-member Junior League of Shreveport-Bossier, which today is tackling issues ranging from domestic violence to child literacy. From the vision of our founding members to today, we are collectively working to improve the community through the effective action and leadership of trained volunteers.

During the 2012-2013 year, the League celebrated our 80th Anniversary, reminding our members and the community of our rich legacy of visionary community leadership. We did this by embarking on two new initiatives, Between the Lines and Domestic Violence Education and Prevention. Between the Lines promotes literacy and strengthens family bonds between incarcerated parents or those deployed by the military and their children. Parents choose a book for their child and the Junior League of Shreveport-Bossier volunteers make a recording of the parent reading the book aloud. The recorded reading is sent to their child, along with a new, gift-wrapped copy of the book. This allows the child to hear their parent’s voice any time, providing comfort in times of parent/child separation. Additionally, listening to the recordings while following along in the books provided by Between the Lines enhances reading skills.

Domestic Violence Education’s purpose is to educate individuals and groups about domestic violence and its negative impact on the community. Domestic violence can be defined as a pattern of behavior in any relationship that is used to gain or maintain power and control over an intimate partner. The Junior League of Shreveport-Bossier has partnered with the Providence House for this project. Junior League of Shreveport-Bossier volunteers will act as educators and teach the program developed by Providence House to different groups in the Shreveport-Bossier Community. In addition, volunteers will provide programs and services to victims of domestic abuse that help to improve their self-image and confidence.

During our 80th anniversary, we also celebrated our rich history of serving the community by promoting two extraordinary projects, the 80x80 Challenge and the 80th Anniversary Project. As we celebrated our past, the Junior League of Shreveport-Bossier also planted seeds, both literally and figuratively, for the next 80 years. I am proud to report that 2,640 of volunteer hours were given to the community through the 80x80 challenge and more than $37,000 was raised with the 80th Anniversary Project that planted eighty trees along Clyde Fant Parkway to commemorate our 80th Anniversary.

The Junior League of Shreveport-Bossier has been meeting the needs of the community for 80 years.

Over the last eight decades, the League has listened to the community and developed programs and services that meet the needs of the citizens at that point in time. During the visioning sessions for the Shreveport-Caddo master plan, the citizens spoke on the importance of “Promoting tree preservation and tree planting on public and private property.” Once again, the Junior League of Shreveport-Bossier through these two projects served as the catalyst for change in our community.

The League and I are grateful to you—our members, partners, patrons, and friends. Without you, this extraordinary commitment to our legacy and our future would not have been possible. It is with great pride and appreciation that we invite you to review the 2012-2013 year, and with great excitement we invite you to join us for another year of fulfilling the mission of the Junior League of Shreveport-Bossier.

In appreciation,

Shelly Stone President, 2012-2013

community impact

Junior League Volunteers not only give their time, but also their talent.

Junior League of Shreveport-Bossier volunteers are not afraid to take ownership of a program or planning of an activity for an agency, which allows the agency to focus their limited resources on other needs. JLSB Community Placements tell us over and over again how grateful they are for our educated and highly trained volunteers. Volunteer training is what sets the Junior League apart from other volunteer organizations. In 2012-2013 JLSB combined volunteers with funding for maximum community impact with the following Placements.

2012-2013 Community Projects Health Literacy Initiative Artist for a Day at the Red River Revel Super Safety Saturday at Sheriff’s Safety Town Kids in the Kitchen

In 1976, the Red River Revel was the Junior League’s bicentennial gift to the community. This “Celebration of the Arts” is a week long multi-arts festival for the Ark-La-Tex area, held each October on the riverfront. As continued support of the festival and as a source of funds for our mission, JLSB volunteers sell Pepsi products during the festival. Total Sales: $7,315.18

Junior League Market

Shopping for a Cause is a three-day shopping extravaganza held each spring.

This year’s Market made a monumental move from the Bossier Civic Center to the Shreveport Convention Center, where vendors and event activities could be accommodated in one location, making it one of the best for vendors and attendees.

The Market is a collection of more than 100 specialty boutiques and merchants from all over the country showcasing antiques, artwork, gourmet foods, jewelry, seasonal decorations, housewares, adult and children’s clothing, and much more.

The Market is also host to brunches, style shows, musical entertainment, and children’s events. With the generous support of both individual and business contributors, the Junior League of ShreveportBossier raises funds to impact the community.
