Thank you for
visiting the website of the Junior League of
Odessa.
I am honored to
serve as the 2007-2008 President of the Junior
League of Odessa. Founded in 1948, we are an
organization of women committed to promoting
voluntarism, developing the potential of women,
and improving communities through the effective
action and leadership of trained volunteers. |

Our league stands
for service, commitment, and results. The fruits
of our labor are evident all over the community
from the automation of the Ector County Library,
Hope Chest, Junior Achievement, mentoring young
girls through Camp CEO, building a house for
Habitat for Humanity, creating the Rainbow Room
for abused and neglected children and much, much
more. We will continue to impact our community
with this year’s projects, which are the Dental
Clinic, the Ronald McDonald Carevan and Spray
Park. We continue to research and explore
promising new projects that will benefit the
great citizens of Odessa.
We could not make
an impact on our community without the
dedication of our active members and our
sustaining members who continue to serve the
League and the community through their
leadership and participation in various service
activities throughout the city. The efforts of
our entire membership enable the League to
address critical and emerging community needs.
This year, our
league will imagine the impact of a committed
membership, trained volunteers, diverse
perspectives and community service. I have no
doubt we will keep the rich tradition of service
alive and well in Odessa.
V. Tisa Hawkins
President
2007-2008
