League Fundraisers

Since 1924, the Junior League of Colorado Springs has had a tradition of improving the Colorado Springs community by developing women leaders, supporting youth and family causes, and founding new organizations that address important community needs.

The JLCS organizes and manages several fundraisers throughout the year. The commitment to our community would not be complete without financial support through our fundraising activities. We invite the community and our membership to support the mission of the JLCS.

Our Big Impact Fundraiser for the 2023-2024 League Year is our Centennial Gala. ​

Our annual fundraisers include:

JLCS also has other ways that league members, community members and those individuals or organizations invested in our mission can support us financially. They are listed below.

Gifts in Kind
Consider an in-kind donation to the Junior League of Colorado Springs. Gifts in kind, also referred to as in-kind donations, is a kind of charitable giving in which, instead of giving money to buy needed goods and services, the goods and services themselves are given. (Exp. printing, marketing, business advice, food services, contributions of goods or services to support our Centennial Gala silent auction, etc.)

The Endowment Fund
The Endowment Fund was established in 1986 as a separate investment for the Junior League of Colorado Springs with the purpose of providing a perpetual source of revenue. A contribution to the Endowment Fund is a gift that grows, the principal is invested, while the interest income provides an ongoing source of financial support for the JLCS.

Donate Stock or Securities
Donating stock or mutual funds allows you to avoid paying capital gains tax on the appreciation, and deduct full fair market value of the security at the time of gift. This is an excellent way to leverage your gift in support of the Junior League of Colorado Springs.

There  are several ways to make a transfer. To determine the method best suited to your needs, you or your broker should contact the Junior League office at 719-632-3855.
