GHRW Caring for American Projects
Our projects energize us and attract new members, retain current members, provide positive public relations by working in the community and showing that Republican Women “do care.” We wear our red tee-shirt that says “Republicans Care for America" at Community events. Please email GHRWomen@gmail.com to volunteer for Support our troops, Flag Waving, Scholarship, Habitat for Humanity, Care Net, Dictionary Project
| Support our Troops GHRW Chair, Tineke Geringer, sends care packages to six soldiers or more each month, both to Iraq and Afghanistan. Members donate both needed items, and cash for more items and postage Bill Dougherty, Jesse Boulton and Sherry Doughterty on left. Jesse pin by Gen. Jacoby |  |

 | WFRW Day at the Capitol Each year, GHRW members visit Olympia to tour the Capitol, the Governor’s Mansion sometimes, and have lunch with our legislators while hearing what they are up to, and how we can help them. Recently, we have joined with other WA state clubs and have now become a large group, all dressed in red. |  |

 | GHRW Chair, Elizabeth Kreiselmaier, not only made a beautiful, hard back printed history book for our club, she also showed us how to make our own personal ones. This was our “Scrapbooking Tea” at her home, 2007 |  |

 | Safe Haven for ABANDONED BABIES PROJECT 2005 Chair, Georgina Carr, asked members to help her gather items for infants to present to fire stations and firemen who could possibly be surprised one day with a legal, abandoned baby. Teens are encouraged to take unwanted babies to a safe place, and GHRW members wanted to be sure that fire stations are supplied with plenty of new baby supplies. | |

 | Rally Whether it is for “One Man/One Women=Marriage” or a “Re-Vote for Rossi” rally, or a “TEA PARTY” rally to vote against high taxes and lost liberty, or protesting a protest against our troops, GHRW will be there to voice our Constitutional opinion | |
