Each year Belk West Town Mall holds an exclusive shopping event benefiting the Junior League's Mini Grants Program for Knox County Schools.  The Junior League of Knoxville and Belk partner to award mini-grants in the amount of $50-$500 on a competitive basis to teachers for innovative classroom projects. This event was held on November 11, 2012. The Junior League raised over $15,000 that was awarded to our Mini Grant recipients. 

Mini Grants Awarded

The Junior League of Knoxville Mini Grant awards will be presented at the December meeting, Tuesday December 4th, at the Lighthouse Knoxville, 6800 Baum Drive. Reception for grant winners begins at 5:30 pm.
