Annual Fund
The Annual Fund is the heart of the Junior League of Nashville’s fundraising efforts. It runs year-round and fuels everything we do—from developing women as leaders to training effective volunteers who create lasting change in our community.
JLN’s Legacy of Leadership: For over 100 years, JLN has helped launch and support Nashville institutions like Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital, Nashville Children’s Theatre, and Centerstone. Your gift keeps that legacy alive.
Where does my donation go?
Your gift directly powers the mission of JLN. Here’s how your support makes a difference:
- Community Impact: Funds vital volunteer work with our partner agencies.
- Training & Leadership: Equips members with the skills to be strong leaders in Nashville and beyond.
- Signature Programs: Sustains initiatives like PAGE, Done in a Day, Members in Motion, Book ‘Em, and our ongoing training programs.
- Our Home & Staff: Maintains our League headquarters and supports the dedicated staff who make our work possible.
Every dollar you give helps us expand our reach and deepen our impact.
When can I give?
Anytime! The Annual Fund runs alongside our League year (June–May). Most donations made between June – May apply to the current league year.
And it’s not just for members—friends, family, and community supporters are invited to join us in making Nashville stronger.
