Junior League of Washington Celebrates International Find the Good Day 2025

Annual initiative inspires kindness, leadership, and community impact
 
WASHINGTON - Sept. 15, 2025 - PRLog -- WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Junior League of Washington (JLW), a volunteer-powered nonprofit of women dedicated to advancing leadership for lasting community impact, proudly joins Junior League chapters worldwide in celebrating International Find the Good Day™. Taking place on September 18, this annual event shines a spotlight on the power of optimism, kindness, and women's leadership to create meaningful change.

Now more than ever, communities are seeking hope, connection, and resilience. The Junior League created International Find the Good Day™ to inspire individuals to focus on what's working—within themselves, their neighborhoods, and the world. Research shows that optimism can improve health, fuel motivation, and spark collective action—making the "find the good" mindset not just uplifting, but transformative.

"Kindness is contagious," said JLW President Christina Babcock. "One act—no matter how small—can brighten a day, spark a chain reaction of goodwill, and strengthen the bonds of a community. On International Find the Good Day™, we are proud to join leagues around the globe in encouraging everyone to look for and share the good."

International Find the Good Day™ aligns perfectly with JLW's theme for its 113th year: JLW LIFE showcases how members embrace the opportunity to serve by:
  • Leaning in and listening
  • Investing in our development
  • Finding pathways to opportunity
  • Engaging with the community

Throughout the day, JLW members will share stories, photos, and acts of kindness on social media—inviting the public to join in and keep the momentum going.

In support of this event, Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser has issued an official proclamation recognizing September 18, 2025, as International Find the Good Day in the District: "We honor the Junior League of Washington and its partners for using International Find the Good Day to elevate our communities through volunteerism, service, and inspiring all Washingtonians to engage in acts of kindness."
