New to town?

 “I recently transferred to the Junior League of Monmouth County from New York.  In New York, I met some of my closest friends through the League because it attracts women who share the same values as me. They are driven, committed and value giving back to the community.  I also initially joined the League in New York because I knew if I moved to new towns or cities either in the U.S. or abroad, I would easily find a community at the local Junior League.

In my two months as a member of the Junior League of Monmouth County, I have been very impressed with the women who I have met.  They again share these same values as the women that I met in New York.  Also as a working mom who is relatively new to living in the suburbs, the League has been a great way to quickly get involved in the community and meet other women through both service related and social events.  It is a small, tight knit community that welcomes newcomers with open arms.”
