The focus of this GFWC publication is to highlight specific GFWC membership benefits and provide resources for membership needs, such as recruitment and retention strategies. A downloadable version of each newsletter will be posted to gfwc.org upon completion.

Featured Club
GFWC Lawrence Classics Club
The GFWC Lawrence Classics Club (Kansas) has 19 members, and it’s an incredible mixture: one charter member has been involved since 1997; one member has been part of GFWC since 1960; there are a mother and daughter pair who are 2nd and 3rd generation clubwomen; four members are Boosters; and their youngest member only graduated from college last year. This assorted group shares the same values about volunteerism and puts them into action.
