During the GFWC Colorado Fall Board of Directors’ Meeting, clubwomen made community service a priority. GFWC Colorado participated in a virtual walk for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital on Saturday, September 16. They heard a brief history of St. Jude and their accomplishments in treatments and cures for childhood cancers. They raised $500 for St. Jude at this meeting alone!
The Village Improvement Association of Rehoboth Beach, DE, Inc. (VIA) donated a total of $10,000 to three organizations in the greater Rehoboth Beach Area. Each group performs important work fighting food insecurity.

Cape Henlopen Food Basket – https://capehenlopenfoodbasket.org/
Community Resource Center, Inc. – https://www.rehobothcommunitycenter.org/
Harry K Foundation – https://harrykfoundation.org/
“It is an honor to be able to strengthen the work being done year-round by these three organizations that serve our local residents. There is an increasing population whose needs we must support,” said VIA president, Kate McKenzie.
