National Strength – Local Focus
Our rich history began in the mid-1890’s Anne Banning with her close friend and co-founder began doing local charity work in Los Angeles, California with a group of prominent women. Assistance League was the first nonprofit, nonpolitical, nonsectarian organization founded in the West to recognize the potential of volunteers in helping those less fortunate to a better, more meaningful life. Today Assitance League chapters have more than 20,000 member volunteers in 120 chapters across the United States. These chapters offer various programs based on the needs identified in each community. Assistance League volunteer members have achieved true transformation in their communities and have helped make a better world possible.
