What We Do And Who We Are

Thank you so much for your interest in the Saddleback Valley Chapter of National Charity League! Our mission is to foster mother-daughter relationships in a philanthropic organization committed to community service, leadership development and cultural experiences. We offer many diverse opportunities to serve in our communities including delivering meals to the elderly, assisting disabled individuals at a therapeutic riding center and supporting local library programs to name a few. We are also very fortunate as a chapter to be able to financially support these philanthropies through our fundraising efforts which includes our annual fashion show. If they choose, mothers and daughters have the opportunity to take leadership positions within the individual classes as well as within the chapter and each year mothers and daughters are exposed to various cultural experiences.
Our Membership Process 
Our membership process starts in the fall of each year for the following school year. The application process begins in the fall of their 6th grade year. Girls join as a “class”with other girls in their grade level. Applications are available every October through December for mothers of 6th graders, who will be applying for membership beginning in the following year – their daughter’s 7th grade year.

Each prospective Mother/Daughter is asked to fill out an application and attain a sponsor and co-sponsor from our chapter. The applications are due in early January. Our Membership Committee then reviews these applications along with the size of each “class” and those applicants that are selected are extended invitations for membership. It is a six year time and financial commitment by both the mother and daughter. 

We do occasionally open up membership for girls entering the 8th or 9th grade, although usually these upper classes are already full.  If your daughter is going into the 8th or 9th grade, please feel free to contact us (see below) to determine if you can apply for membership.

If you and your daughter meet the eligibility requirements as stated above, please use the "Contact Us" page to get in contact with our membership committee and express your interest in joining our Chapter!
