The League Cup

Show Up. Step Up. Make an Impact

The Junior League Engagement Challenge is a fun way to recognize members who go above and beyond throughout the League year. Members earn points by participating in League activities, supporting our community impact, strengthening our fundraising efforts, promoting the League, and taking on leadership opportunities.

The goal isn't simply to earn the most points—it's to encourage all of us to show up, get involved, try something new, and make an even greater impact together.

Challenge Rules

Impact Shifts: An Impact Shift is an in-person volunteer opportunity procured by the League. Volunteer activities arranged independently by a member do not qualify unless approved in advance.

Social Media: Members earn 5 points for an eligible personal social media post promoting the League, its impact, events, membership, or fundraisers. Social media points are capped at 10 posts (50 points) per member per month.

No Double-Counting: One activity may only earn points once. If an activity could qualify under more than one point category, the member receives the single applicable point value—not points from multiple categories. Bonus Achievements are separate and may be earned when the applicable milestone is reached.

Required Activities: Activities that are already required of all members do not earn Challenge points unless specifically identified. For example, required fundraiser volunteer shifts do not earn points, while ticket sales above a member's required amount do.

Financial Contributions: Personal checks, cash donations, or other direct financial contributions from members do not earn Challenge points. The Challenge is designed to reward engagement, effort, outreach, leadership, and service—not a member's ability or willingness to personally contribute money.

Sponsorships & Donations: Sponsorship and in-kind donation points are awarded for contributions secured from outside individuals or organizations and are credited after the League confirms the contribution.

Verification: Members are responsible for submitting qualifying activities through the League's designated tracking method. Leadership may request reasonable verification when needed.

League Discretion: League leadership has final discretion regarding eligibility, point awards, and circumstances not specifically addressed in these rules.

Members can earn recognition throughout the year—not just at the finish line.
