Improving our Community

"JLNW Partners with Habitat for Humanity"
Holding a 2x4 beam that will be used in a Somers, NY house built by Habitat for Humanity of Westchester, Kiersten Marich, President, and Kate Hutchings, Community Impact Council Director, present a check from the JLNW to Jim Killoran, General Contractor. The Junior League of Northern Westchester is partnering with Habitat for Humanity in 2010 to build affordable housing in Northern Westchester.

"Holiday Sharing Drive"
Co-chair Kate Hutchings, HSD team members Maria Boniface, Lisa Cohen and Ariane DeGunzberg and Co-chair Jennifer Binette stand among the 1260 boxes donated by members of the community during the 2008 Holiday Sharing Drive. These containers filled with gifts and food, were distributed to nearly 300 in need families in the northern Westchester area for the holiday season. 

"Intergenerational Exchange Day"
25 Yorktown senior citizens came together with over 100 Strang Middle School students in a Junior League sponsored full day program called Intergenerational Exchange Day. Stories of years gone and experiences from WWII and the Great Depression were shared by the seniors with the students. The students in turn shared current culture by two student bands performing a concert.
