The Junior Women's League of Smithfield is pleased to be able to offer Community Impact Grants funded by our
signature fundraisers, Big Night Out and Touch-A-Truck! These grants allow JWL to appropriate monies in a flexible
manner to nonprofit community agencies that render services within Johnston County.
Priority is given to organizations whose projects directly benefit the lives of women and children within Johnston County.
The Community Impact Grant application period for the 2020-2021 league year has passed.
Agencies were notified regarding CIG funding by January 24, 2021 and will be awarded at our Big Night Out fundraiser
event in the spring or our Touch-A-Truck fundraiser event in the fall of 2021.
