Leadership Resources

GFWC has added the RGK Center for Philanthropy and Community Service to its list of leadership resources. ServiceLeader.org is a project at the Lyndon B. Johnson School of Public Affairs at the University of Texas. The site contains resources on all aspects of volunteerism.

Visit the Virginia HOBY website for information on HOBY and how your club can lend support. HOBY Form
