Leadership in Job's Daughters Exciting opportunities await young girls today. As a member of Job's Daughters, you can learn skills that will help you meet life's challenges and be successfully prepared for those opportunities.

The purpose of Job's Daughters is to promote friendship among young women while giving members the foundation on which to build the qualities needed to become contributing partners of society through personal growth and leadership skills.

This service oriented, non-profit organization was created to unite young women and enable them to learn leadership skills, organizational methods, and the importance of fulfilling individual responsibilities within a group. By planning their own activities, the members have fun doing what they want to do and at the same time create lasting friendships.

Job's Daughters is a self-governing group. Members of a local chapter, called a Bethel, elect their own officers and an Honored Queen (like a President of a group) to lead them and help decide their own activities and plan their own events for each six month term. The Honored Queen and Officers help to run the group and take care of business such as keeping track of finances, planning events like fund raising, social and fun activities, all with the guidance of adult volunteers. The experience you get as a member of Job's Daughters will help you now and in the future. Job's Daughters learn how to work together to achieve their goals, how to raise money and spend it wisely, how to speak to an audience, the fundamentals of parliamentary procedure and how to run a meeting, and how important community service is to everyone.

In short, Job's Daughters International offers the qualities that today's young women want and need from organizations that earn their commitment . . . fun, friendship, helping others, and the chance to learn organizational and leadership skills.

One of the ways of gaining leadership abilities is through education. Education is very important in Job's Daughters. None of our activities should interfere with schoolwork or home responsibilities and each year the organization awards scholarships at the international and regional level to help deserving girls achieve their educational goals.

Most importantly, Job's Daughters teaches members about friendship and respect for other people and cultures. Job's Daughters has over 20,000 members in Canada, Australia, the Philippines, Brazil and the United States. As a member, you have the opportunity to travel and meet girls from other Bethels and other countries.
