The GFWC/NFWC can play an important role in their own village, town or city if they select their project based on community need.

It is very important that you work with other groups, businesses or organizations to carry out your project’s goals. Do not just undertake a project without collaboration of others. The famous saying, “Together we can make a difference” is really a true statement and is the basis for any award-winning project.

Document in the very beginning as you select a project and continue documenting until the end is at hand. Success will be measured by the involvement of your entire club, collaboration in your community and beyond the city limits and finally the long-term effect.
