Description

The Junior League of Lynchburg is holding its 7th Little Black Dress Initiative from October 2nd to October 8th, 2022. In 2016, the JLL began a new venture entitled The Little Black Dress Initiative, or LBDI. The LBDI is a week-long fundraising campaign that harnesses the power of social media to bring awareness to women facing distress, whether it be poverty, violence, or inequality. It exemplifies the JLL’s mission to empower women in our community. For five consecutive days, participants wear one black dress, or other black attire, to spark conversations and highlight the effect stressful situations can have on a woman’s access to resources, confidence, and opportunities in the face of poverty.
