community   service   programs

 Beginning September 2020 GFWC launched five new Community Service Programs to build upon the
difference that the Federation has made throughout the United States - and across the globe. 
The Community Service Programs and Special Programs have been re-structured to help
clubs light a path for the future and better address the current and upcoming needs of its communities.


    ARTS AND CULTURE
COMMUNITY SERVICE PROGRAM

This program encourages members to promote and support art and
cultural programs in clubs and communities, and to expand
understanding on every level, from local and regional to national and international.  Our goal is to create projects that create crafts, dance,
drama, food, music, and other manifestations of art and culture
that develop skills, awareness, and appreciation. It is designed to
inspire club women and ignite within them a desire to make the world
a more beautiful, thoughtful, and caring place.


CIVIC ENGAGEMENT AND OUTREACH
COMMUNITY SERVICE PROGRAM

This program reminds GFWC members that each of us is part of
a larger society and responsible for undertaking actions that will
create a better quality of life and foster a sense of community - locally,
regionally, nationally and globally.  This program highlights and
encourages citizenship, crime detection, safety, and disaster
preparedness; the needy, hungry, and homeless; and our military
personnel and veterans.



EDUCATION AND LIBRARIES
COMMUNITY  SERVICE PROGRAM

We aim to help others, while we continue to learn.  Projects in the
Education and Libraries program are designed to foster schools, as well
as other educational institutions and opportunities.  The programs
promote libraries, literacy, and the love of a good book.  Through
these efforts, we encourage the growth of individuals and communities
at home and around the world.


ENVIRONMENT
COMMUNITY SERVICE PROGRAM

This program encourages us to become stewards of the  earth by
working to preserve the world's resources, protect wildlife
and domesticated animals, live sustainably and beautify our
communities and enjoy nature.  Environmental degradation is
cumulative and many scientists warn that we are at a tipping
point.  There is no time like the present to act.


 HEALTH AND WELLNESS COMMUNITY SERVICE PROGRAM
The human mind, body, and spirit comprise our health and wellness.  To improve our well being,we must address
three key components: nutrition, disease prevention, and physical and emotional care.  This program aims to explore
the various opportunities for awareness and advancement of each of these vital areas.
