This GFWC Club was organized to help renovate, maintain, and promote the use of the GFWC Alabama State Headquarters.

 

Members have contributed outstanding gifts of money and numerous hours of volunteer service in meeting their goals.

 

Membership is open to anyone interested in furthering its purposes. The Club meets three (3) times per/year and the annual Membership dues are $35.

 

All funds raised and contributed through the Club are used to improve and enhance Foster House to effectively serve all state Members.

Foster House may be reserved for tours, meetings, and special social occasions with the sponsorship of a GFWC Alabama Member.
