• If you want to make a difference!
• If you have compassion for girls and women in difficult and sometimes horrific circumstances
• If you have a passion to do something about it
• If you’re on a path to gain wisdom from life’s experience
• If you want to grow into a leader or just do your part

 
Here’s what we offer and ask of new members:

• Get to Know Us: We offer friendships, support, mentoring, and network contacts. We empower each other.
• Get involved: Share your time, talent, and passion doing hands-on service projects and fundraising events.
• Attend Meetings: We’re a community of women who enjoy getting together to learn more about the community we live in, the organization we are building, and to make a difference by getting things done.
• Recruit new members: The bigger we grow, the bigger our impact to improve the lives of girls and women everywhere.
• Participate in fundraisers: We need your help to raise money. Then help us to use it wisely. The more money we raise, the bigger our impact is to effect change.
• Lead and Support: We grow leaders who accept challenges. Then we support our leaders to be and do their best.
• Pay Dues: Our yearly dues are minimal. Dues keep us in good standing with the region and federation; the larger organization that in return connects us to a world community of women just like us.

Let’s do it together! Together we are strong! Together we can do amazing things! Together we can improve the world!
