Objective:  Encourage partnerships to highlight continuing relations and network with those partners to build stronger programs.  Partners will assist in monitoring the donations generated by GFWC members.

GFWC Partners are organizations that operate at the national or international level and offer unique and customized services such as project materials, speakers, kits, and/or additional information specifically designed for GFWC clubs to enhance the effectiveness of the GFWC Education Community Service Program and special projects within your communities.  These Partners are aware of GFWC clubs' specific needs and our club and organizational structure.

These GFWC Partners will assist in monitoring the donations generated by GFWC members.  To ensure that your donation, whether at the individual, club, district, or state level is included in the GFWC total, please make sure to:
1.  Write on the check that you are a GFWC member or club.
