Founded in 2014 by the Junior League of London, the Little Black Dress initiative (LBDI) is a week-long awareness and fundraising campaign that harnesses the power of social media to illustrate the restrictions poverty places on choices, opportunities, and access to resources. 

Advocates wear a black outfit from March 10-15, 2026 in an effort to spark conversations and awareness about the Junior League’s mission and impact areas. Together, we are committed to making a difference in the community as we build partnerships for a better Birmingham!
