Join Us as GFWC Virginia Begins our Second Century of Service

The purpose of this organization is to bring into closer unity the women’s clubs of GFWC Virginia, in order to promote through their common interest, the cultural, educational and environmental welfare of the State.  A diverse offering of programs and projects enables clubs to address the quality of life within their respective communities.

Federation membership benefits include:

  • Support, encouragement, and friendship from a network of women with mutual concerns and interests

  • Opportunities to exchange ideas and broaden education

  • Leadership training and personal skills development

  • Opportunities to network with government, corporate and organization leaders and to influence public opinion

  • Broad choice of programs

  • Satisfaction that comes from making a difference in the community

With 6,785 members in 212 clubs, the Virginia Federation continues to make strides in the areas of the arts, conservation, education, home life, women’s health, international affairs, and public affairs.  The Virginia Tech Memorial Project – purchase of an emergency vehicle for the campus student volunteer rescue squad – will be the 2008 – 2010 State Project.

“Federation – Get In The Game”  will be the membership theme for this administration.  Our club work is enjoyed with groups of friends.   We roll the dice on projects and strategize on membership initiatives, all with a goal in mind of winning the prize of a project well done.

For membership opportunities and questions please contact our GFWC VA Membership Chairman, Dale Fisher.   Our members do have fun while making a difference! Join Us! Get In The Game!

What Our Members Are Saying...

 

After attending the GFWC VA Summer Conference:

I just LOVE GFWC.  The experience of being with my second family is so WONDERFUL.   I’ll say this for myself but I’m sure I’m speaking for others when I say, It’s like going home to visit.  If the rest of my term is anything (which I know it will be and more) like this weekend I have so much to look forward to.

Tina Bukoskey

Shenandoah District Director of Junior Clubs

 


 

Speaking on the formation of the GFWC Dominion Sisterhood Juniorettes: 

Volunteering is the best way I know to teach my girls compassion and responsibility.  This is my passion – to see my girls benefit the way I have from belonging to GFWC, and to see them change the world!"        

Nanette McKeel Petrella

GFWC Dominion Woman’s Club

 


 

When I joined the GFWC Northern Virginia Junior Women’s Club I was looking for a way to connect and give back to my community.  What I did not expect was just how much I would grow as a person.  As the 2008 Virginia LEADS candidate I have learned valuable information and received new tools to help me grow as an individual and to help me grow the GFWC community.
