Community Program Project Requests
Each year, the Junior League of Dallas invites nonprofit agencies and community partners to apply for inclusion in our upcoming Community Program. Selected projects receive support from trained JLD volunteers and funding, all aimed at advancing our mission to strengthen the Dallas community through purposeful action and collaboration.
