Health & Wellness
The human body, mind, 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 Community Service Progam aims to explore the various opportunities for awareness and advancement of each of these vital areas.
Enviornmental
This Community Service 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.
Education & Libraries
HGJWC promotes education in both children and adults. We aim to help others, while we also continue to learn. Projects in the Education Community Service Program are designed to foster schools, as well as other educational institutions and opportunities, and to promote literacy, libraries, and the love of a good book. Through these efforts, we encourage the growth of individuals and communities at home and around the world.
Arts and Culture
The study of art and culture enriches the human experience. Art education improves problem-solving and critical thinking skills, builds focus and perseverance, and nurtures creativity, confidence, and collaboration. Cultural awareness promotes effective communication and profoundly increase the ability to appreciate and enjoy a variety of new people and experiences.
Fundraising and Development
The HGJWC fundraising committee is vital to the life and financial well-being of the organization. The functions of this group are varied but center around information, building relationships, and raising money to meet the specific organization's goals.
Public Relations and Communications
The purpose of the HGJWC Communications and Public Relations Committee is to gather and provide information to our members and the public using all available resources. This would include flyers, social media, newsprint, and club website.
Civic Engagement and Outreach
The Civic Engagements and Outreach Community Service program reminds members that each of us is a part of a larger society and is responsible for understanding actions that will create a better quality of life and foster a sense of community-locally, regionally, nationally, and globally. the four "board strokes" of this effort include Citizenship; Crime Prevention, Safety, and Disaster Preparedness; the Needy, Hungry, and Homeless; and our Military Personnel and Veterans.
More than 60,000 members of the General Federation of Women’s Clubs are united in their dedication to volunteer community service. While diverse in age, interests, and experiences, all clubwomen are united by a desire to create positive change in their communities.
