How Shop Save & Share works

If you haven’t taken part in Shop, Save & Share, here’s a look at how it works:

  • Purchase a shopping card for $40
  • Shop more than 375 participating retailers
  • Get savings between 20% + 50%. 

Retailers are spread across the Greater Birmingham Area—Homewood, Hoover, Mountain Brook, Mt. Laurel, Pelham, Trussville, Vestavia Hills and more—so wherever you live, you can shop a variety of stores close to home.

Feel-good alert: 100% of Shop Save & Share card proceeds fuel the JLB’s community projects.

“Funds from Shop Save & Share strengthen the Junior League’s mission to develop women leaders and create meaningful community impact.

They support 20+ projects tackling food insecurity, literacy and human trafficking, and every dollar is amplified by the League’s 40,000+ volunteer hours, making a lasting difference across Birmingham.”

Ellen King, President, Junior League of Birmingham

Shop Save & Share raised $37,000 in 2024

Think $40 can’t make a difference? Last year, Shop Save & Share raised $37,000, helping the JLB provide:

  • 57,220 meals to the Tarrant community through monthly distributions with Community Food Bank of Central Alabama Mobile Food Pantry
  • 140,217 ounces of donor milk to infants across Alabama through the Mothers’ Milk Bank of Alabama
  • $12,500 towards Community Assistance Grants

These are just a few ways the JLB has made an incredible impact across Greater Birmingham, thanks to local support.
