President’s Welcome

Welcome to the Junior League of Gainesville’s website. I appreciate your interest in our organization. I am grateful for whatever the reason may be for bringing you here. If you are here to join us, we accept new members twice yearly; our membership application and information can be found here on our website. If you feel compelled to support us financially and donate, our organization and those we serve in the community are always grateful for your financial support. Various ways to donate can be found here on our website.

We are a nonprofit 501© (3) organization of trained women volunteers committed to advancing our mission of promoting voluntarism, developing the potential of women, and improving the community. Our community impact area is Food Insecurity. For years, we have partnered with organizations within our community to reduce food insecurity. Our Food Insecurity Advisory Group meets quarterly to collaborate with other experts in this space.

Our award-winning Public Affairs Committee works hard to engage with elected officials to ensure that issues related to our mission are at the forefront of their minds. We are leading the way to change with over 400 volunteers. 

The Junior League of Gainesville began in 1935; we have a rich history. As the oldest nonprofit in Gainesville, we are excited to host the Amazing Give on April 25th, 2024.

Please don’t hesitate to contact me via email at president@gainesvillejrleague.org 

With Gratitude,

Demetrica Tyson
2023-2025 President
