About Us

Welcome

Assistance League has its roots in the great San Francisco earthquake of 1906. Deeply moved by the plight of those ineligible for assistance from existing relief organizations, Mrs. Hancock Banning organized a Southern California relief unit named "The Assistance League". This organization continued its volunteer activities through World War I, culminating in the founding of the first chapter in 1919. The organization expanded its community service and refined its philanthropic philosophy, and in 1935, National Assistance League was organized with the vision of a nationwide effort. Establishment of new chapters continued and gained momentum.

Locally, Assistance League in Los Gatos-Saratoga is the 110th chapter of National Assistance League and was formed in September 2000. We have over 100 members who provided more than 13,000 volunteer hours of community service last year. We are dedicated to meeting, identifying and addressing local community needs.
