The Junior League of Akron contributes to community success through fundraising efforts and the gifts of generous donations.

This past league year, The Junior League of Akron raised more than $1,000 through Giving Tuesday donations, cookbook, and ornament sales and the Acme Cash Back and Amazon Smile programs. Over $600 of donations were made back to our community partners with the majority to our Focus Project, Feeding Hope Pantry. Overall, the Fund Development Council helped support raising $4,520.21 as our financial outcome (most of which comes from Year End Giving – thank you, Sustainers!).

The league continued with the Legacy Giving Program. Legacy gifts can take many forms and can be a benefit not only to the League but also to your estate and your heirs. Gifts may include naming the Junior League of Akron as a beneficiary in your will, trust, or life insurance policy; the use of a charitable remainder trust; or gifting highly appreciated stocks.
