Welcome to A Christmas Affair 2014 Christmas in the City! This
years event marks the 39th year The Junior League of Austin members
have produced this premiere shopping event kicking off the holiday
season in Austin. Since its first year the event has grown from 41,
mostly local, merchants to an event with more than 200 merchants
featuring products from around the world!
Just as our city has grown and changed, so has A Christmas
Affair and so has The Junior League of Austin. Our membership has
grown and is more diverse. As an organization of women we have
adapted to the changing roles our members have in society and we
have continued to evolve in response to the changing needs of our
community and our members. Weve grown and evolved while keeping our
purpose focused.
Our members are dedicated to improving our community through
voluntarism, which, in turn, develops remarkable women leaders who
serve in our community. In my view, this model of membership,
voluntarism and training creates a perfect, infinite cycle for
every action given, there is a benefit gained, thereby creating a
uniquely talented, trained and effective community leader.
Each year the A Christmas Affair committee sets out to create a
uniquely themed and decorated holiday market intermingled with
special events for kids of all ages and this year is no exception.
I proudly proclaim, without hesitation, they have delivered! So, as
you shop the market and experience the events that are A Christmas
Affair Christmas in the City consider thisThe Junior League of
Austin is an organization run entirely by volunteers. Trained
volunteers who change League jobs annually. From FIT - Food In
Tummies to Coats for Kids to Technology to Treasury to Public
Relations to Spanish Immersion to Done-In-A-Day to A Christmas
Affair and moreEVERY job changes and EVERY task is done by a
volunteer.
This issue of Capitalines features a few of the projects and
programs of The Junior League of Austin. I encourage you to take
the
time to read about the impact our members are making in our
community. I am honored and proud to lead this extraordinary group
of talented women who accomplish so much and impact so many through
voluntarism. On behalf of The Junior League of Austin I thank you
for attending A Christmas Affair, our signature fundraising event
and supporting our efforts in the community.

EMPOWERING YOUNG WOMEN ACROSS AUSTINBY ANNE PETERSThe Junior
League of Austin (JLA) is an organization of women committed to
promoting voluntarism, developing the potential of women and
improving the community through the effective action and leadership
of trained volunteers. Its purpose is exclusively educational and
charitable. -JLA Mission Statement
The League does not exist solely for the development of its
members, but also for the development of the potential of women
throughout our community. Three community programs are particularly
important in meeting this mission: Con Mi MADRE; GENAustin; and
Junior Achievement of Central Texas.
DEVELOPING THE POTENTIAL OF WOMEN: CON MI MADRECon Mi MADRE is
an organization devoted to providing educational and social support
for Latina girls to prepare for post-secondary education. The most
unique aspect of the program is that it involves both students and
their mothers, recognizing that parental involvement often
determines whether a student will achieve success. The importance
of parental involvement cannot be overstated.
Con Mi MADRE will be awarding five $1,000 scholarships to
qualified students who complete the organizations GRAD (Girls
Reaching A Dream) program for college students. In addition to
providing 16 volunteers, the League contributes $500 towards these
scholarships.
The scholarships support the community by defraying the expenses
of higher education for the young women who have stuck with and
completed the Con Mi MADRE program. Every scholarship dollar is a
dollar that a young woman does not have to borrow from her future
self to fund her education. Scholarships also recognize a students
hard work and demonstrate our confidence in her potential. We
believe that our investment will strengthen her own
self-confidence.
Through its support of Con Mi Madre, The Junior League of Austin
directly and positively influences the realization of the limitless
potential of young women in the community.
IMPROVING THE COMMuNITY: GENAuSTINThe GEN in GENAustin stands
for Girls Empowerment Network. Their purpose is to support and
guide girls to make wise choices as they navigate the unique
pressures of girlhood. They do this through various programs that
give girls the opportunity to discuss body image, develop media
literacy and foster healthy relationships. One of their programs,
clubGEN, is an after-school program for girls in the fourth through
eighth grades. The girls are surrounded
The League does not exist solely for the development of its
members, but for the development of the potential of women
throughout our community.
Con Mi MADRE Students
by positive role models and they discuss diverse, relevant, and
significant topics like bullying, healthy relationships, fitness
and career exploration. Starting these discussions at this early
age will ensure these girls continue them for the rest of their
lives and with following generations of young people.
GENAustin also holds the statewide annual We Are Girls
Conference, for girls in the third through twelfth grade and the
adults who care about them. The conference features speakers and
workshops addressing issues such as social media, financial
literacy and enhancing parent-daughter communication.
GENAustin conducts workshops through the 180 Program. These
workshops address challenges faced by many girls today and
additionally offer programs for girls who are either involved with
or at a high-risk of becoming involved with the juvenile justice
system. Girls who are empowered to make healthy choices and who are
given the tools to seek positive relationships with themselves and
with others become girls who grow into leaders and are members of a
strong and loving community. These programs not only positively
affect the girls in the programs, but also the girls and boys with
whom they interact. This is what The Junior League of Austin seeks
for our community.
EFFECTIVE ACTION AND LEADERSHIP: JuNIOR ACHIEVEMENT OF CENTRAL
TExASJunior Achievement is the worlds largest organization
dedicated to the education of elementary, middle, and high school
students in real-world business, job and financial skills. The
stated mission of Junior Achievement of Central Texas is to
educate, and inspire young people the value of free enterprise,
business, and economics in order to improve the quality of their
lives.
In elementary school, the goal is to broaden childrens horizons
and open their eyes to the possibilities, including entrepreneurial
possibilities, for their future. The skills they learn will help
them be confident in their choices and the decision making process
that gets them there.
Junior Achievement recognizes that middle school is a crossroads
for many kids. At this age, some students dont see the connection
between school work and future success. These students are likely
to give up or drop out. Junior Achievement teaches the link between
school achievement and real world success the link between school
lessons and real world business concepts. For students in high
school the programs focus on job readiness, financial management
and business or career guidance.
Junior Achievement is effective. According to a study conducted
by the organization, 92% of Junior Achievement alumni reported that
being a JA student positively affected their future. Junior
Achievement teaches young people leadership skills. The same study
found that over 80% of former Junior Achievement alumni say their
participation strengthened problem solving abilities, decision
making, critical thinking and interpersonal communication skills.
Through The Junior League of Austins volunteer and monetary
support, the League contributes greatly to building future leaders
and enabling these students success in our community.

The JLAs FIT program meets another critical nutrition need in
our community. According to the Capital Area Food Bank of Texas,
our state ranks among the worst states in the nation for hunger,
child hunger and obesity. One in every four children in Texas
experience food insecurity and multiple studies show that children
who are hungry do not excel in school. FIT Chair, Deanna Schobey,
works with her committee in Del Valle schools to help provide
backpacks of nutritious food to kids on Fridays, filling the
nutritional void
HEALTHY FOOD FOR FEEDING MINDS AND GROWING BODIESBY JUL IE
BERGSTROM
The Junior League of Austin (JLA) is committed to ensuring that
children have access to nutritious foods to feed their minds and
grow strong bodies. When a child is hungry, he cannot concentrate
in school, which can lead to poor performance. To addresss the
hunger challenge, the JLA partners with community agencies such as
Mothers Milk Bank and Sustainable Food Center to help grow our
childrens minds and bodies. In addition, the Leagues own program
FIT - Food In Tummies provides weekly nutrition during the school
year to kids in two Del Valle ISD elementary schools.
Before being placed at Mothers Milk Bank, I had no idea that
donor breast milk was even a thing, said League member Noel
Nielsen, My time at the Milk Bank has raised my awareness in
regards to the necessity of donor milk and donor milk facilities.
Noels placement is in the Mothers Milk Bank lab which processes
prescribed donor human milk for infants. The milk helps pre-term
and medically fragile babies grow and thrive, by providing them
special antibodies to fight disease and infection, as well as
growth hormones to help them develop. Remarked Noel of her
placement, Volunteering saves lives.

FIT backpacks provide healthy food to fill the weekend nutrition
gap
many children face on weekends. Deanna recalls that, Last year
Good Friday was scheduled as a make-up day for the weather
cancelations. Staff expected attendance numbers to be down. But
instead teachers at Hillcrest Elementary found their halls full.
The Hillcrest Principal told Deanna, Those kids came to get their
FIT bags. They need that food.
During the 2013-2014 school year, the FIT program provided
approximately 48,000 bags of food, delivered in 1,500 backpacks,
for 32 weeks. The packs delivered weekly to Baty and Hillcrest
Elementary includes food for the weekend, bilingual healthy recipe
cards, and nutrition tips to be shared with the students family.
Said Deanna about her experience with FIT, The opportunity to truly
make a difference has been life changing for me.
Sustainable Food Center is another project where League members
work to cultivate a healthy community by strengthening the local
food system and improving access to nutritious, affordable food.
Sustainable Food Center envisions a food-secure community where all
children and adults grow, share, and prepare healthy, local food.
When asked about what drew JLA volunteer Audrey Lopez to her
placement she said, Helping independent, organic, and local farmers
sell their high quality, nutritious food is very satisfying.
Gatherings like the Farmers Market are the fabric of our
community.

A CHRISTMAS AFFAIR:CREATING A COMMUNITY OF POSSIBILITIESBY ANNE
PETERS
When I think of A Christmas Affair, I think of:
the decorations and music, which make the shopping experience
feel a bit magical Jennifer Jackson, community member.
a cornucopia of shopping options! Kelly Lowe, community
member.
A Christmas Affair (ACA) is widely known as a giant holiday
market, a fun place to shop with friends, and an event kicking off
the holiday season here in Austin. Shoppers - 6,000 of them each
day - come from all over Texas to a single destination where they
can find treats for themselves and unique gifts for others. Its a
chance for local and small businesses to show off their wares. The
beautiful decorations elevate the experience to something that
Austinites and tourists cannot find anywhere else. Even Santa Claus
makes a special preseason appearance to meet children for brunch
and photos.
There is no denying that A Christmas Affair is an amazingly
successful fundraiser for The Junior League of Austin, raising over
$750,000 annually to support the Central Texas community.
While you can shop elsewhere for holiday gifts, remember that
your support of A Christmas Affair means you are supporting
positive change in our community.

FROM THE SUSTAINING PRESIDENT
Sustaining President, MariBen Ramsey
Thank you for your support of A Christmas Affair! With more than
2,400 total members 1200+ provisional and active members and 1,200+
sustaining members - The Junior League of Austin relies on the
community to help the League deliver on its mission: to promote
voluntarism, to develop the potential of women and to improve our
community. Thanks to you, The Junior League of Austin provides
volunteers and funding to: local non profits; to teachers for
educational projects;
and to low-income school children who wouldnt have enough to eat
over weekends if it werent for the Leagues FIT - Food In Tummies
program. Sustainers are members of the League ages 40 and above who
have graduated from active membership obligations. We maintain our
affiliation to help mentor, guide, advise, engage and learn from
our entire League membership community. Since The Junior League of
Austin was founded in 1934, its members have contributed time,
talent and treasure to enhance the Austin community. From bringing
the first professional social worker to Austin, to founding
non-profit organizations including the Ronald McDonald House (the
Leagues 50th Anniversary gift to Austin) and Con Mi MADRE, to
innovation in response to community needs (see the FIT program
above!). The Leagues members have taken their League experiences
and serve Austin beyond their League workAustin has benefited from
hundreds of League members tackling community issues, spearheading
needed efforts and serving as civic leaders.
Your support of the The Junior League of Austin is an investment
that has an exponential return. Youll find it all across our
communityfrom the children who receive coats through Coats for Kids
or weekend backpacks of food for kids who would otherwise go hungry
to many of the leaders serving on boards and actively engaged in
our community.
