Our History and Projects
Seven ladies started the Club in 2004 and are charter members. President Young had been in a Club that became defederated in 2003, and wanted to form a club that would continue the good work of the General Federation of Woman’s Clubs.
We started by making table decorations for a local nursing home.
We have adopted 3 homes for the
Homes of Hope Birthday Parties.
We made Christmas Wreaths for the Festival of Trees. These Wreaths are silent auctioned for the largest sum of money. The money goes to the local Baby Fold.
We have collected school supplies for a local school that has a lot of underprivileged children. Each child had a back pack and supplies the first day of school. For those that needed them, stocking caps and gloves have been furnished for the students.

We try to send 2 to 3 boxes each month of supplies that they need and don't get.
We have collected and mailed over 4,000 sheets and shower curtains to an EMT Group at Camp Speicher in Iraq.
We collect 150,000 coupons to go to Germany for the soldiers families to use at the PX.
