GFWC Pinellas Juniorettes
Juniorette Clubs are composed of young women in middle or high school ranging from 12 to 18 years old, who work together to meet the needs of their communities through volunteer service projects.
GFWC North Pinellas Woman’s Club and GFWC Clearwater Community Woman’s Club sponsor the GFWC Pinellas Juniorettes. The members are intelligent, energetic, enthusiastic, talented, and motivated young adults committed to community service and to self-development. This group is concerned about the issues facing themselves, their families, their communities, as well as the world in which they live. By sponsoring them, we’re offering the perfect opportunity for them to learn, to grow, and giving them a chance to put their ideas into action.
As the youngest members of GFWC Florida Federation of Women’s Clubs, the girls learn how to organize and operate their non-profit club with rewarding results, and many use their service hours towards scholarship and National Honor Society credits. Service hours performed with GFWC Pinellas Juniorettes may qualify for Bright Futures scholarships.
Juniorette advisors from their sponsor clubs guide and mentor the GFWC Pinellas Juniorettes, helping them develop leadership skills and harnessing their commitment to work on projects that benefit children, families, and the community.
