Welcome to the Junior League of Orange County, California, Inc. (JLOCC), a group of women building better communities! More than 350 teens are emancipated from the Orange County Foster Care system each year as they turn 18. The JLOCC’s Bear Hugs project provides some of life’s basic necessities (sleeping bag, duffel bag, toiletries, calling card, postage, stationery) to the emancipating Bear Hugs project volunteers collect donations and supplies throughout the year, and then assemble duffel bags for the emancipating youth. It is a much needed and appreciated gift for these teens as they begin their adult lives in the community.
The Junior League of Orange County, CA, Inc. is an organization of women committed to promoting voluntarism, developing the potential of women, and improving the community through the effective action and the leadership of trained volunteers. Its purpose is exclusively educational and charitable. A 501(c)(3) organization, the JLOCC reaches out to women of all races, religions, and national origins. Originally founded in 1956 as the Newport Harbor Service League, the JLOCC is a member organization of the Association of Junior Leagues International, Inc.
