As volunteerism continues to decline, this nonprofit is focused on increasing its membership and philanthropic impact via its Big Idea. The Junior League plans to develop a marketing and outreach plan to increase awareness of the organization’s efforts, which include recent work with Meals on Wheels, Big Sur International Marathon and Girl Scouts. “I learned about the Junior League through a friend who’d recently joined, so I attended a social where everyone was so friendly it made it easy to sign up. Throughout my ‘new member’ year I was supported by dozens of successful and confident women who had a mutual goal of being a part of larger community events and impact. Recently, I agreed to join the board and step into those leadership shoes; creating a safe space for fellow members and building confidence, all while making positive change in my community.” -Jessica McKillip LEGAL SERVICES FOR SENIORS YEAR FOUNDED: 1985 PAID STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS: 10 paid, 6 volunteers BUDGET: $1,229,552 899-0492 LSSMC.NET BIG IDEA: Legal Services for Seniors provides free legal assistance to more than 2,000 local seniors Pride made me extra proud to be a part of Monterey’s local community.” Bryan Curl, Monterey Peninsula Pride 64 Monterey County GIVES! 2023 mcgives.com It all starts with YOU The Monterey Bay Economic Partnership (MBEP) has a clear and unwavering mission: to improve the economic health and quality of life in the tri-county region of Monterey, San Benito, and Santa Cruz.
