Junior League of Cincinnati opens 展览ion celebrating 100 years of making a difference
Exhibition at Cincinnati Museum Center showcases a century of community impact
CINCINNATI – The Junior League of Cincinnati is celebrating its centennial with an 展览ion recognizing the group’s accomplishments over the past century. The Junior League of Cincinnati: Making a Difference for 100 Years 将于8月16日在辛辛那提博物馆中心开幕.
成立于1920年, the Junior League of Cincinnati is part of a network of more than 292 Junior League Organizations across the globe. The Junior League of Cincinnati has dedicated those 100 years to its mission of promoting voluntarism, 发展女性的潜能 and improving communities through the effective action and leadership of trained volunteers. Largely focusing on the development and wellness of families and children in the Cincinnati region, the Junior League has worked to fill the gap in social services and address issues that have been overlooked.
“The Junior League of Cincinnati is so excited to partner with Cincinnati Museum Center to build this 展览ion to publicly showcase the work we’ve done over the past century,梅雷迪思·科明说, 辛辛那提青年联盟的主席. “虽然我们的工作确实在这座城市留下了印记, many are unfamiliar with just how much the League has impacted organizations here that we all know and love. We’re thrilled that Cincinnati Museum Center is helping us tell that story.”
The Junior League of Cincinnati has incubated or accelerated over 120 projects in its history. The Junior League of Cincinnati: Making a Difference for 100 Years showcases several of those projects and highlights the League’s history with photos, graphics and a theater experience featuring interviews with Junior League members speaking about their experience and how their work has made their community a better place to live, 玩耍和成长.
在展览中展出的项目包括:
- The Children’s Theatre of Cincinnati – Developed by the JLC in 1924 as the Junior League Players to introduce kids to the theater, 后来在1947年被合并为儿童剧院.
- MindPeace - 2002年, the JLC initiated a project to answer a significant need for an improved system of mental health care for children in the Greater Cincinnati area. JLC launched MindPeace in 2007 as its own non-profit because no other mental health organization focused on systemic improvement to children’s mental health access and quality.
- 芬赛德悲伤儿童中心-成立于1986年, Fernside is the nation’s second oldest children’s grief center and remains a national leader in providing grief support services, 向家庭提供外展和教育. It is now an affiliate of the Hospice of Cincinnati, addressing the unique needs of children.
- GrinUp! – With oral healthcare being the single most common unmet healthcare need among children in Ohio, JLC发起了grup! 倡议. The JLC raised funds to provide oral health products in schools and supported CMC’s 笑容背后 展览.
- Sweet Cheeks Diaper Bank – The Junior League of Cincinnati’s latest program partnership, Sweet Cheeks Diaper Bank partners with local social service agencies to distribute 92,000 diapers every month to low-income families while raising awareness of the basic health need for diapers. In 2018, Sweet Cheeks expanded its services to include the distribution of menstruation supply kits and potty training packages.
“The Junior League of Cincinnati have been difference makers in our community for the past 100 years, incubating projects and initiatives that have had a true impact on young lives in Cincinnati,伊丽莎白·皮尔斯说。, 辛辛那提博物馆中心的总裁兼首席执行官. “We’re happy to be part of their centennial celebration and to help shine a light on their impactful work.”
今天, the Junior League of Cincinnati is a 501(c)(3) non-profit that boasts nearly 1,000个成员, 每一个都致力于促进自愿主义的使命, 发展女性的潜能 and improving communities through the effective action and leadership of trained volunteers. As The Junior League of Cincinnati: Making a Difference for 100 Years 反映了一个世纪以来对社区的影响, the League also looks forward to the next century and what is yet to be accomplished.
