You may have already given up on your New
Year’s resolutions, so
here’s a second chance for a fresh
start. Our first meeting of
2012 will help you achieve
energy, harmony, and balance. The English
translation of Feng
shui is "the way of Wind (feng) and Water (shui)"
or "the
natural forces of the universe." Our speaker, Lori Greer,
will help us learn about the Chinese art of arranging buildings,
objects, and space in the environment. Fun and informative!

WHAT IS GFWC-CHARLOTTE ALL ABOUT?
We support and participate
in many programs:
The
Siren Shelter Holiday Tea
2011 was held on Sunday, November 13 at St. Mary's Church. Of
the more than 20 decorated tables, the GFWC-Charlotte table
themed "O Holy Night" took best of show.
BAY CLIFF HEALTH CAMP
is a non-profit, non-denomination summer therapy center for
physically handicapped children from 3-17 years of age. It
is located in Big Bay in the U.P. It is open for 7 weeks
each summer. Founded in 1934, it now serves 200 children.
It is funded almost entirely by organizations and public
spirited individuals. It is a tax deductible contribution.
We are proud of the work they do and thus support this cause
through monetary donations and items from their wish list.
GIRLSTOWN Foundation was
begun by GFWC MI to meet the need for quality group care
services for abused children. This foundation has evolved
from a small residential treatment facility into a
multi-service, mission driven organization providing a wide
range of family, community, mental health and child welfare
services throughout Michigan. We also support
Girlstown through monetary donations and items from their wish
list.
Heifer International is a
non-profit organization that accepts dollar donations and
converts them into cows, sheep, llamas, water buffalo, goats,
camels, chickens, ducks, rabbits, geese, bees, pigs, or trees
(whatever the populace needs). Money is donated through
December 15 and sent to help make a difference in other's lives
around the world.
We travel with Mini Trips:
