Programs

  • Program 1 [2018]

    Tea Room: The Junior League of Houston, Inc. established its first community project as a well-baby clinic for indigent children that would eventually grow into the Junior League Health Care Clinic at the world-renowned Texas Children's Hospital. To fund this important endeavor, members formed a Luncheon Club - the genesis of today's Tea Room. The Tea Room supports the League's exempt purposes by serving as a training facility where members are educated in the discipline of service, which is then carried into the various community service projects which the League undertakes. The training and education afforded by the Tea Room enables members to be more effective and efficient community volunteers. The Tea Room exclusively serves its Tea Room patron members and their guests.
