INAUGURAL GENERAL FEDERATION OF WOMEN’S CLUBS (GFWC)

NATIONAL DAY OF SERVICE HELPS RELIEVE FOOD INSECURITY &
 HUNGER ACROSS THE 50 STATES

Washington, DC, January 24, 2024 — The inaugural General Federation of Women’s Clubs (GFWC) National Day of Service (NDS) proved impactful in raising food resources for communities across the country. The 2023 campaign spotlighted the food insecurity and hunger crisis. The results received from the “NDS Impact Report” submitted by approximately 700 of the 980 GFWC Regions, State Federations, Districts, and clubs indicate GFWC clubwomen collected 145,506 pounds of nonperishable food, recorded more than 20,000 volunteer hours, collected $138,415 in monetary donations, and contributed to the preparation of 121,386 meals. 

 â€śThe GFWC National Day of Service’s purpose is to spotlight a community problem and mobilize our volunteers across the 50 states and the District of Columbia to aid relief efforts,” said Debra Strahanoski, GFWC International President. “This year’s campaign focused on food insecurity and hunger. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, 34 million people in the United States suffer from food insecurity, 100 percent of U.S. counties are impacted, and 9 million children do not know when they’ll eat next. I am proud of GFWC club members for their dedication to helping others in need. We exist to make a positive contribution to our local communities.”

The GFWC NDS is an annual public awareness campaign for members to create Community Service Projects in their communities to help others. Please mark your calendar for the 2024 GFWC NDS on Saturday, September 28. This year’s campaign will once again spotlight food insecurity and hunger.
