Portland, December 21 2015. It’s a time for reflection for members of the Junior League as members gear up for their New Year’s Eve Charity Ball December 31, 2015 at the Gerding Theater at the Armory. Highlights of 2015 have included the seventh annual JLP CARES event in October where board members, Regina Wheeler, Sarah Burns, Courtney Flood, Kristin Kilshaw, and KaDo Gorman were all smiles.

Women building better communities. That’s the Junior League.
The Junior League has been the driving force behind the kinds of initiatives and institutions that make our community a healthier, more vital places to live.

Time and time again, the Junior League is among the first organizations to step up to the plate and tackle a community’s biggest challenges.
