PARTICIPATE IN GFWC’S SEASONAL RECRUITMENT CAMPAIGN
Recruitment is a year-round process, and the campaigns and reporting of new members reflect this fact.
A club that recruits three new members during each season will end the year with 12 new members! Clubs may plan creative membership recruitment campaigns and events around the many national awareness issues that are aligned with GFWC Community Service programs, special projects, and commemoration days and months. The possibilities are as diverse as our organization. Always include Federation facts, food, and fun. Clubs achieving and reporting three new members as a result of their seasonal recruiting efforts will be recognized in GFWC Clubwoman Magazine. Send the name of the recruiter and the names and contact information of the active, dues-paying new members to Jen Nowak Membership Chairman at 413-596-5504 or JWNowak@charter.net.
Be sure to send your new members information to Jen at least 3 days before the deadline for the "Report due" dates in the image to the right.
CELEBRATE YOUR CLUB MEMBERS’ RECRUITMENT SUCCESSES
Star recruitment pins and Circles are GFWC’s recruitment incentive for clubwomen. The first five awards, recognizing members that have recruited five to 29 new members, are small, star-shaped pins with a butterfly clasp and a chain that attaches to the stem of the GFWC member pin. Members that have recruited 30 to more than 50 new members will be awarded the appropriate color circles to wear behind their star pins. These awards are cumulative and cross administrations. There are 10 levels. Only our membership chairman, Martha, is able to order the pins and circles from GFWC headquarters. Questions about GFWC Star recruitment pins and Circles should be directed to Martha. For the 10 levels for membership recruitment look on page 11 of the membership section of the GFWC Membership Advancement Guide.
