The Junior League of Northwest Arkansas fundraiser helps the nonprofit organization's work as its members "focus on improving the quality of life for the women and children of Northwest Arkansas with an emphasis on domestic violence awareness and prevention."
Ongoing projects include That's My Bag, which annually provides new, full backpacks for more than 500 children who are removed from their homes because of abuse and neglect. The bags include a blanket, clothes, undergarments, socks, personal hygiene items, books and journals, stuffed animals and toys.
League members also plan and volunteer at events and workdays at EOA Children's House, a therapeutic daycare in Springdale, and Peace at Home Family Shelter in Fayetteville.
