GFWC Ohio and our club are supporting the Ronald McDonald House. Anyone can help our club by donating pop tabs which the House uses to recycle for financial help. We encourage everyone in our communities to support the Ronald McDonald House any time they have the opportunity. The project motto is "Turning Fries into Funds."
Mark you calendars now for a club basket raffle fundraiser at Ali's Bar and Grill on Friday November 6, 2026. Money raised helps the Joseph House veterans. Thank a veteran at any time.




New and current members filled decorated jars with candy to give sweet treats for the Madeira Middle School teachers and staff. Thank you to every teacher who work hard to help and educate our children. Afterwards, the project gave current members a chance to speak about our club with new members.

Club members attended the GFWC Ohio Southwest District Fall Conference. Three community projects were addressed. First, $1,400.00 across Ohio was raised to help victims of sexual assault with hospital kits. Second, our Split-the-Pot drawing was donated to Safesurfin, an organization that is working to protect people, especially children, on social media. Third, our program reflected our GFWC Ohio president's special emphasis - Mental and addiction help. It was a great and informative time.
