Nominations
SUSTAINER OF THE YEAR: 2025 Sustainer of the Year Nominations are now OPEN!
As we look forward to celebrating our 2024 Sustainer of the Year – Kathleen Gibson – at the April 5th Milestones luncheon, we are asking you to begin to consider who might continue in the line of extraordinary Junior League of Dallas members who have made a great impact in our community!
Nominations for the 2025 Sustainer of the Year officially open today and conclude on May 1, 2024. This nomination period allows us time to consider your thoughtful nominations of worthy members and prepare for the announcement of the 2025 Sustainer of the Year in early fall, 2024.
Please follow the link which allows you to nominate a Sustainer online. Additionally, the form can be downloaded here and completed by hand.
We look forward to receiving your nominations! Any questions can be directed to Sustainer President-elect Sally Dutter at dutter@sbclglobal.net or 214.808.6542.
FAQs
How can I become a Sustainer?
A Junior League member who has reached 40 – 49 years of age with three years of Active service or who, regardless of age, has contributed 10 years of Active service is eligible to become a Sustainer. Many members contribute more than 10 years Active service, so don’t think you MUST go Sustaining after 10 years!
What do I need to know about Sustainer dues?
Membership dues are due April 1.
Sustainer dues amounts are as follows:
$170 up to age 64 (Age as of June 1st) | $95 ages 65 to 79 | $0 age 80+
What opportunities are available?
We have volunteer opportunities, trips, parties, and educational events scheduled throughout the year. Stay tuned for the 2023-2024 happenings!
I'm new to Dallas, can I transfer my membership?
Junior League members new to Dallas can transfer their membership by contacting your current League and setting the process in motion. Questions about transferring can be answered by Kristianne Hinkamp, 214-357-8822.
Who should I contact for questions?

Leadership
Happy New Year Sustainers!
What an incredible first half of the League year we experienced together, and what great memories are in store in the coming months for us as Sustainers! It truly has been my joy serving our beloved League with you thus far, and so many wonderful moments are ahead.
A few notes as we turn our calendars to 2024:
- Thanks to the extraordinary leadership and planning of Christie Carter and Debbie Oates, we have so many fun Sustainer Programs to choose from this spring! Sandy Ammons and Francie Mancillas have implemented such a great system that makes registration simple and sends an automatic reminder with all the details at your fingertips. If you have not registered for the spring 2024 programs, grab your calendar and register here: https://www.jldallas.org/sustainers/
- There is not a better time to connect with others than at our Milestones luncheon, co-chaired by Linda Secrest, along with Active Co-Chair, Sally Hodge. The luncheon will be held on Friday, April 5 at the Omni Hotel. We will be honoring Kathleen Gibson as the 2024 Sustainer of the Year for her incredible accomplishments in the community. Round up Sustainer friends and purchase your table or tickets here: https://www.jldallas.org/milestones-luncheon/ We will also have “no-host” Sustainer tables available if you would like to sit with other Sustainers at the luncheon.
- Believe it or not, nominations for the 2024 Sewell Salutes Award Winner, 2025-26 Sustainer President, and 2025 Milestones Chair open this Friday, January 5 and close on Friday, February 9. Be on the lookout for more information in your email inbox and the JLD Sustainer website. Questions about these positions can be directed to Nominating Chair, Monica Christopher, at monica_christopher@att.net.
To quote a beautiful greeting card I just received….”may the new year bring you health and happiness, peace and prosperity, love and laughter.” And might I add, a lot of smiles too!!
Looking forward to the spring with you!
