Mini Grants

In addition to serving the Athens community with our members’ volunteer hours, the Junior League of Athens annually donates a portion of the funds we raise to local nonprofits that share our mission, improving women’s health in the Athens community, through our Mini Grants.

This program seeks programs that complement the mission of the Junior League of Athens. Junior League members want the opportunity to improve our community in meaningful and challenging ways specific to our current area of impact: Women’s Health. Our Mini-Grants program seeks to fund agencies and projects that complement this focus area.

Applications for 2024 Mini Grants are now OPEN!
