Find the Good Day is a celebration of the people, moments, and acts of service that make our communities stronger. Through volunteer service, collaboration, and kindness, our members are finding meaningful ways to make a difference in Chicago for generations to come.

This year for Find the Good Day, The Junior League of Chicago came together to support our community by focusing on essential needs, including education and access to healthy food. The day began with a panel highlighting some of the incredible community partners we work alongside to address these needs and sharing ways members can get involved throughout the year.

Members then put their passion into action, packing 500 snack bags for Major Adams and creating 275 motivational cards to accompany them with a personal message of encouragement 💙

The Junior League of Chicago kicked off the start to summer with “Around the Corner” meetups across Chicago and the suburbs. 💙

Members came together to connect with women in their own communities through relaxed, intimate gatherings filled with conversation, laughter, and new connections. Whether over coffee, walks, or local meetups, this series was all about making meaningful friendships feel a little closer to home.

Thank you to everyone who hosted and attended - we loved seeing members build connections across the city we serve! ✨
