VOLUNTEER

Chandler Republican Women members keep track of our volunteer hours so they can be reported to NFRW. Here’s the policy and a form that can be downloaded and printed.

Caring for America was established by NFRW in1999 to encourage state federations and clubs to actively participate in at least one community service program. Caring for America is based on the belief that problems can be solved most effectively through the generosity and combined energies of individual citizens. 

Programs may be completed by the state or club individually or in collaboration with other community agencies. Republican women always step forward when they see an area that needs assistance, whether it is hands-on or through donations of needed food or other commodities. Here are some of the ways to be involved:

Helping at food banks and soup kitchens 

Participating in Arbor Day events 

Cleaning beaches, highways, parks, etc. 

Teaching English to new American citizens 

Teaching citizenship classes to future American citizens 

Helping underprivileged children with food, homework, hygiene, and children leaving foster care at 18

Teaching young mothers mothering skills 

Participating in counter-drug programs 

Volunteering at women’s shelters and homeless shelters 

Making fleece tied-blankets for newborns, children and the elderly in nursing homes 

Creating a thank you program for firefighters, police officers and other first responders

HEALTHY SNACKS FOR BACKPACKS was an original CRW Caring for America project idea that benefited Children’s Cancer Network.

The Veterans Luncheon is our way to honor veterans in our community. In addition to lunch and entertainment, each veteran will receive a custom red aluminum water bottle and thank you note.

SHOP WITH A COP is an annual Christmas program that benefits underprivileged children. It is a program originated by AZ Law Enforcement Outreach and Support.

President Ronald Reagan placed great emphasis on the importance of volunteerism, viewing it as a core component of American values and a crucial element in addressing the needs of society. Chandler Republican Women likewise believes in this principle and the idea of “neighbor helping neighbor.”
