2026 Division 2

The Junior League of Norfolk-Virginia Beach, VA used the milestone of their Centennial year to do something deeply meaningful – to reach back and bring their Sustainer community home. JLNVB mad reconnection a priority and launched a Sustainer Soiree that drew more than 45 Sustainers back through the doors, reintroduced them to the League’s current work, and debuted their Legacy of Leadership Fund, which raised more than $58,000 to support member leadership training throughout the centennial year. They waived reinstatement fees, personally reached out to Members over the age of 80, and created intentional pathways back into the life of the League. Nearly 50 Sustainers not only reinstated, but became more engaged in the League through volunteering, mentorship, and hosting League gatherings.

Congratulations to the Junior League of Norfolk-Virginia Beach!
