Annual Can-A-Thon

Every year, NJSL partners with Coweta County Schools to collect non-perishable items for local families in need. Donations to the Can-A-Thon benefit the Coweta County Food Pantry.

Donation sites will be set up December 3, 2024 from 7am-7pm on The Courthouse Square in downtown Newnan (North Court Square) and in the Regions Bank parking lot (Thomas Crossroads). Local schools will be collecting cans throughout the month of November.

Christmas in Newnan

Christmas in Newnan provides gifts and necessities to children & elderly in Coweta County. With the help of DFCS, The Heritage School, and sustainer, Gina Watkiss, we are able to provide Christmas to those in need. Funds for Christmas in Newnan are raised from our Annual NJSL Sporting Clay Shoot.

To show NJSL’s dedication to Coweta County, each year the NJSL selects a Coweta County non-profit organization to receive funds raised from our spring events to support our mission. The Newnan Junior Service League holds one fundraising event in Coweta County during the spring: The annual Big Event (Mardi Gras Casino Night) and the Legends of the League Golf Tournament. This year, the NJSL’s events are sure to provide excellent entertainment and fun and will continue to impact the community through our Grant Recipients.

NJSL Scholarship Program

Each Spring, the Newnan Junior Service League awards scholarships to graduating Coweta County ladies who will be attending college the next Fall. If interested in applying for the scholarship, please see your high school counselor.
