The Junior League of Greater Princeton is accepting applications for its 2014 Community Grants and scholarship programs.
Organizations seeking grants and students seeking scholarships must be located or reside in the Junior League’s service area of Hunterdon, Mercer, Middlesex and Somerset counties and Bucks County, Pa.
Since its inception, the JLGP Community Grants program has awarded approximately $150,000 to more than 100 organizations.
Grants help support non-profit organizations that have a one-time need of goods or services for a specific program or purpose related to the league’s focus areas of early childhood health and wellness and women and girls’ empowerment.
Grant application deadline is set for Jan. 17.
Each year, JLGP awards scholarships to female high school seniors who have demonstrated a strong commitment to community service and voluntarism.
The two scholarships for which applicants may apply include a $1,000 award for excellence and leadership in ongoing volunteer activities and a $1,000 award for demonstrated leadership in a single community service volunteer project.
Scholarships application deadline is scheduled for Jan. 31.
JLGP is an organization of women committed to promoting voluntarism, developing the potential of women and improving communities through the effective action and leadership of trained volunteers.
