Civic Engagement & Outreach

The GFWC Civic Engagement and Outreach Community Service Program reminds us that each of us is a part of a larger society and is responsible for undertaking actions that will create a better quality of life and foster a sense of community – locally, regionally, nationally, and globally. This Community Service Program (CSP) features programming focused on citizenship; crime prevention, safety, and disaster preparedness; those in need, food insecure, and unhoused; and our military personnel and veterans. 

Collectively GFWC addresses issues of public concern. Volunteering is one of the best ways to put civic duty into action, and it is often the first step in building a stronger connection to community. However, there are other ways to contribute, such as advocating, fundraising and donating, and problem-solving.
