The Junior League’s Signature Grant process reflects the League’s commitment to thoughtful, community-driven impact. This year, 36 applications were submitted by organizations across our community. After a thorough review process, committee members evaluated and scored each application using a detailed rubric focused on mission alignment, community need, sustainability, and overall impact. The top four finalists were then presented to League membership for consideration, and the final recipient was selected through a membership vote.
In honor of the League’s 75th Anniversary, the 75th Signature Grant was awarded to the Edmondson Telford Child Advocacy Center. This investment will support the Center’s expansion efforts, helping create additional forensic interview rooms, advocacy spaces, and training areas to better serve vulnerable children and families throughout our community. The grant reflects the League’s longstanding commitment to strengthening services that protect, support, and advocate for children in need.
