International Find the Good Day
Celebrating Kindness, Empowerment, and the Spirit of Community
International Find the Good Day – created by The Junior League – is a global call to action to seek, elevate, and create good in ourselves, our communities, and the world around us. More than a single moment on the calendar, Find the Good Day is a movement that reflects the timeless spirit of Junior Leagues everywhere: a legacy of kindness, empowerment, and community transformation.
Each year, the Junior League of Portland proudly joins Leagues across the world to honor this day by uplifting voices, performing acts of service, and reminding our community that good is always worth pursuing. Whether through volunteering, supporting a neighbor, or simply choosing compassion in a small circumstance, every act matters. Every act adds up. Every act changes something.
A popular Junior League quote is:
“Be the good. Do the good. Find the good.”
This simple but powerful message guides our work—today and every day.
