Junior League of Wilmington (DE)

Junior League of Wilmington (DE) Women building better communities! The Junior League of Wilmington was founded in 1918 under the inspiration of Mrs. William S. Bergland.

The Junior League of Wilmington is a 501(c) (3) nonprofit volunteer organization. Since its inception, the women of the League have encouraged every member to use her talents and resources to improve the social and economic conditions of others. Today, the League has over 400 members, making it a large nonprofit organization in Delaware. Continuing to focus on improving the health, education, and

welfare of those in need, the Junior League of Wilmington serves as an important volunteer resource and a catalyst for positive change through our partnerships with other nonprofit organizations in our community. Over the years, the Junior League of Wilmington’s focus area has changed to meet the diverse needs of our community. From actively supporting a woman’s right to vote, creating a Foster Care Review Board to protect children’s rights, helping to build the new Woodlawn Library and participating in numerous projects with the Ronald McDonald House, the Junior League of Wilmington has been a force in Delaware. Most recently, we spearheaded passage of Erin’s Law in Delaware, requiring publicly funded schools to implement age-appropriate, prevention-oriented sexual abuse education. For nearly 100 years, the women of the Junior League of Wilmington have dedicated their time, energy, and resources to impact our community.
