George Junior Republic’s primary objective is to help its contributors to fulfill their philanthropic and financial goals.

The first Junior Republic in Freeville, New York was established in 1895, using the financial support of neighbors and friends. This tradition of giving has continued. Since 1909, Pennsylvania’s George Junior Republic has received annual gifts and capital investments to support its mission of providing disadvantaged children with the tools needed to become contributing members of society.

The generosity of individuals, corporations, and foundations has fostered both the physical and the programmatic developments of George Junior Republic. The continued support George Junior Republic receives from these friends is imperative to the success of George Junior Republic’s holding companies including George Junior Republic in Pennsylvania, Preventative Aftercare, and George Junior Republic in Indiana. Annually, these gifts help to provide more than 1,000 dependent and delinquent youth with counseling, education, and therapeutic recreation.
