Dear Students, Families, and Counselors: Welcome to the Junior League of Montgomery’s College and Career Night with Signature sponsor Alabama Power! Since 1985, we have presented this free event for high school students and their families to explore academic and career opportunities. We hope this resource guide will provide you with information to help you reach your post-secondary education and career goals. We are deeply grateful to the many local businesses, clubs, and organizations that provide scholarships, grants, and loans to deserving students in our area. Their commitment to improving our community by supporting young people’s success assures a brighter future for all of us. A High School Junior or Senior attendee will receive a $500 scholarship courtesy of the Junior League of Montgomery! To be eligible for the drawing, you must enter during the event and be a High School Junior or Senior living in the River Region. The Junior League of Montgomery is an organization of women committed to promoting voluntarism, developing women’s potential, and improving the community through effective action and leadership of trained volunteers. Since 1926, we have donated countless hours and millions of dollars in financial support to the River Region. Each year our members not only give their time but dedicate themselves to serving our community. This year’s College and Career Night is possible because of its Committee members’ determination and work. Led by Amerika Blair and Lora Reynolds Evans, they have given attendees a wide variety of colleges, universities, and career opportunities. We are so thankful for each of them! Last year, College and Career Fair pivoted to a virtual platform because of the commitment to providing resources to high school students and their parents amid the global pandemic. This innovation won the AJLI Award for Innovation 2021! Thank you to all who made this possible. The Junior League of Montgomery invites you and your families to participate in our Holiday Market, October 6th – 9th, 2021, Women’s Leadership Summit — March 2022, and The Rummage Sale – April 1st and 2nd, 2022. When you invest in the Junior League of Montgomery, you are helping to strengthen families in the River Region. If you are interested in our events or membership, please look at our www.jlmontgomery.org for more information. Students, we celebrate your academic achievements and wish you all the best as you pursue your educational or vocational goals! Sincerely, Marie Wise Styles, 2021-2022 President Junior League of Montgomery
