Welcome from the Junior Woman’s Club of Raleigh! I am honored to serve as the Club President for the 2011-2012 program year. The members of this Club are enthusiastic women who inspire me every day with their giving hearts and willingness to serve our community, and I am fortunate to call them my friends.
At the beginning of her administration our President traditionally selects an organization upon which she asks clubwomen to center their volunteer efforts for the upcoming year. This year’s President’s Project is the Methodist Home for Children which provides community based services and resources to nearly 1,500 children and families annually with a powerful mission—to build upon the social, physical, emotional, and spiritual strengths of children, youth, and families, and affirm their worth. Please take the time to visit their website for more information on this fantastic organization.
In addition to our work with the President’s Project, we are engaged in our GFWC-NC State President’s Project, Literacy-The Adventure of a Lifetime through tutoring and hands on service in our local schools. Our projects also focus on GFWC points of emphasis including domestic violence prevention and children’s advocacy. Finally, our clubwomen encourage one another through fun and fellowship as we also work to enrich the lives of others in our local community, just as we have done since our Club was formed in 1928.
We invite you to explore this website to learn more about the Junior Woman’s Club of Raleigh. If you are interested in attending an upcoming meeting, please feel free to email or our for more information. Thanks again for visiting us!
In Junior Spirit,
Misty
