Austin Junior Forum Details
Austin Junior Forum (AJF) is a non-profit volunteer organization supporting women, children, and the elderly in the Austin, Texas, area through community service and fund raising. Learn more about how we use our #powers4good.AJF serves the community in many different ways, from hands-on community service work to raising funds to provide grants to charities and non-profits in our community. We partner with several local organizations to prepare meals, foster education and creativity, provide comfort and hope where needed, and celebrate triumph over adversity. In addition to volunteering with local charities and non-profits, we have two internal community service projects: the Teddy Bear Program, which provides stuffed Teddy Bears and Dalmatians to Austin's emergency services agencies for children in crisis situations; and Caswell House Etiquette Classes, which help children and youth develop the skills they need to put their best foot forward when they step out into the world. Our annual fundraiser, Christmas at the Caswell House, raises funds that are distributed to area charities and non-profits through our Grants Program and helps support the historic Daniel H. Caswell house.HISTORY OF AUSTIN JUNIOR FORUMAJF was founded on March 28, 1969. That spring, 18 young women joined together to promote civic, educational, and philanthropic interests in Austin. Application was made to Junior Forum, Inc., (JFI) to initiate a local chapter, and the following year, Austin Junior Forum was granted a charter and recognized as a chapter of JFI. AJF is one of nine JFI chapters in Texas, with Houston Junior Forum being the initial chapter founded in 1946. Each chapter is a private, non-profit service and welfare organization.
