GFWC-Wisconsin

 GFWC 2010-12 Club Manual Conservation Community Service Program Information

Conservation Collaborations is the continuance of club projects that involve a community, such as highway clean up, responsibility of a parcel of a lakefront, river banks or town parks, etc.  Suggested projects include helping with school forests, conducting workshops on invasive species, water quality, woody biomass, and raising money for Wisconsin's special project, "Trees for Tomorrow".  One way to do this would be to collect pennies or nickels at every club meeting and turn them in at the state convention.  Please report all your projects as these statistics are used in working with and recruiting new GFWC partners, grants, and advocacy opportunities.
