You are invited to the Agape Pregnancy Resource Center Baby Shower!

Tuesday, January 10th, 2012

You are invited to the Agape Pregnancy Resource Center Baby Shower! The Agape Center helps unplanned pregnant women physically, emotionally, and spiritually. At the same time, they receive the encouragement, friendship, and support that the mother needs during this difficult time.  The WCRW 1st quarter project will support the Agape Center by having a Baby Shower and will help to collect items such as bibs, receiving blankets, baby wash, baby wipes, diapers, and much more. Please pick up a donation item card at the February meeting. For more information about the Agape Pregnancy Resource Center please visit http://www.agapeprc.org.

We will continue to collect box tops and will be donating the box tops to Thrall Elementary School.  The box tops are an on-going project.

We are continuing to build the WCRW Scholarship fund; this is an on-going project. Please help contribute to the future of our young Republicans by dropping your spare change in the Scholarship bucket, “Change you can believe in” that will be on every table!

Caring for America 3rd and 4th Quarter Project

Thursday, June 16th, 2011

The WCRW 3rd and 4th quarter project will be our Military Makeover- M2 Project. Our goal is to help two women transition from the military to civilian life. WCRW will help the women veterans prepare for civilian jobs by translating their military skills to a civilian work resume, helping them with interview skills, interview wardrobe, and much more! We are working with various groups to identify the two military veterans. We are looking forward to working on this project the next 6 months. If you know of a possible candidate, please contact Sarah Brunet at caring AT williamsoncountyrepublicanwomen DOT com

Also, we are continuing to build the WCRW Scholarship fund. Please help contribute to the future of our young Republicans by dropping your spare change in the scholarship buckets that are will be on every table at the July meeting. “CHANGE YOU CAN BELIEVE IN”!
