The Junior League of Baton Rouge is proud to offer our “Ready Hands” committee to lend a hand to your community event. Ready Hands is a committee formed by the Junior League of Baton Rouge, Inc. that reaches out to our local community by assisting  non-profit organizations with their special events. We have trained volunteers ready to support your organization.
