Volunteers in Action: GFWC Woman’s Club of Raleigh (NC)
January 10, 2024
The Woman’s Club of Raleigh (TWCR) made a connection with a local high school and discovered a need for snacks for some students. Snacks donated by members were delivered in November. While making the delivery, volunteers were told that hoodies were also a need as the weather has gotten colder. At the club’s December general meeting, money, snacks, and hoodies were donated. TWCR was able to deliver 50 hoodies and a trunk full of snacks to the high school for their food pantry and after school program.
