BOISE, ID—On May 4, 2024, the Junior League of Boise (JLB), a dedicated nonprofit organization of women volunteers, will host their second annual Derby Day Gala at The Club at SpurWing. Since 1928, JLB has been tirelessly serving the Treasure Valley, and this event will serve as a vital support for their ongoing mission: to advance women’s leadership for meaningful community impact through volunteer action, collaboration, and training.

The Derby Day Gala will be a grand affair featuring a VIP reception, auction, raffle, dinner, and dancing. Sponsors are being sought to support the event, with sponsorship levels starting at $1,000. Top sponsorship levels still available include The Hors d’Oeuvre and Bourbon and Bar sponsorships, both at $2,5000; the Kentucky Run sponsorship at $5,000; and the Presenting Sponsorship at $10,000. All sponsorship levels provide an exciting way to have a clear presence at the Gala, and to support the JLB mission. Tickets and tables are also still available. For sponsorship or ticket details, visit jlb.afrogs.org.

Funds raised through our Derby Day Gala will support the Junior League of Boise’s new strategic focus, Hunger and Food Insecurity in the Treasure Valley. As part of JLB’s community impact, the organization is committed to educating its members and the community, empowering individuals to act, and supporting local organizations that aim to improve conditions for those most underserved in the Boise community.
