Jane Fonda looked stylish and elegant at the 2026 GCAPP Rising Leaders Luncheon in Sandy Springs, Georgia on Friday, June 5 2026.

The 88-year-old actress and activist was all smiles as she posed alongside singer-songwriter and former Real Housewives star Kandi Burruss at the event, which celebrated young people making a difference in communities across the state.

Jane looked radiant in a tailored pink pantsuit featuring a double-breasted blazer and coordinating trousers. She paired the sophisticated look with a burgundy blouse and gold jewellery, while her signature silver curls framed her face beautifully.

The cause is one that aligns perfectly with Jane's lifelong commitment to activism and advocacy.

While she is best known for her award-winning acting career, Jane has spent decades using her platform to champion social causes. Throughout the years she has advocated for environmental protection, women's rights, reproductive health, civil rights and political engagement, becoming one of Hollywood's most outspoken activists.

In recent years, she has become particularly passionate about climate action, launching her Fire Drill Fridays campaign and regularly participating in demonstrations to raise awareness about environmental issues.

Her commitment to making a difference has remained constant throughout a remarkable career spanning more than six decades.

Jane rose to fame in the 1960s before becoming one of Hollywood's biggest stars thanks to acclaimed performances in films including Klute, Coming Home, 9 to 5, The China Syndrome and On Golden Pond. Along the way, she earned two Academy Awards, multiple Golden Globe Awards and a reputation as one of the most talented actresses of her generation.

More recently, she introduced herself to a whole new audience through the hit Netflix series Grace and Frankie, where she starred alongside longtime friend Lily Tomlin for seven seasons.

As she stood alongside emerging leaders and fellow supporters such as Kandi Burruss, Jane demonstrated why she remains such an admired figure. At 88, she still continues to combine timeless style with a deep commitment to making the world a better place.
