In our very first episode of The League, we open the doors to the mission, history, and heartbeat of the Junior League of Boca Raton. Hosts Daniele Jean, Lisa Warren, Lauren Pomerantz, and special guest Victoria Matthews, President for the 2025–2026 year, take you inside the work, the women, and the impact that define this organization.
Victoria shares how the Junior League began, the legacy of service that has shaped Boca Raton for decades, and the current initiatives making a real difference today, including:
• Literacy partnerships that support Title One students
• The Period Poverty program serving girls across South Florida
• NICU basket pilot projects supporting new mothers
• The Back to School Bash and the Girls Room experience
• The history and purpose behind the Women Volunteer of the Year Luncheon
• The 1971 Society and how it strengthens JLBR’s mission
You will also hear meaningful stories from each host, from early volunteer experiences to moments that changed the trajectory of their service. They discuss membership, the provisional journey, adapting through Covid, and why women across all walks of life continue to find purpose and friendship in the League.
