Gulf Coast Woman’s Club Represented at International Convention
During the meeting, Linda Powell, Public Relations Chairman for Gulf Coast Woman’s Club, was awarded 3rd place for her Media Book.
The book was in competition with forty-four other books from across the nation. “Domestic Violence Awareness and Prevention” and ”Empowering Women One by One” were convention themes.
In 2006, GFWC was recognized by Senator Joseph Biden of Delaware as “a gem among our midst” for work related to these projects. International President Jacquelyn Pierce said, “Our members have truly embraced the cause of domestic violence awareness and at this years gathering in Philadelphia provided a remarkable platform for us to showcase the dedication and compassion of our members.”
In the first year of the domestic violence focus, GFWC members have initiated nearly 4000 projects and raised more than $1 million in funds. GFWC Gulf Coast Woman’s Club is proud to be a member of the General Federation of Woman’s Clubs and supports this wonderful project.
