Assistance League of Greater Cincinnati began in 1995 as a small guild affiliate of National Assistance League with sixteen caring women whose sole focus was to identify community needs and develop possible solutions that the all-volunteer organization could provide. Throughout our history as a chapter, ALGC has experienced tremendous growth in both membership and demand for services. The cornerstone program, Operation School Bell, has grown from providing new clothing for 40 students at one school to current projections of clothing for over 3000 students at numerous schools in Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky. Mindful of our social responsibility to changing social conditions, other programs providing assistance to victims of assault and domestic violence as well as disadvantaged college students have been developed and are experiencing similar expansion.
From its inception, Assistance League has made it a priority that publicly raised monies are used locally for philanthropic programs. Through wise management of funds and generous donations, costs are kept to a minimum so that more than 80% of money raised goes directly to the community, thus improving the educational and life experiences of adults and children in need. New clothes help begin a child's school year. Household goods and new bedding help a battered woman begin a life away from her abuser. A collection of school supplies helps to launch a college student's dream of a higher education. These acts of our members demonstrate the integrity, service and compassion of our chapter. Current Assistance League members continue the founding members' vision: offering hope, encouraging dignity and enhancing self-worth to all individuals in an ethical, respectful manner.
