What Do They Do?

The 29 chapters of Girl Friends give generous financial support and dedicated personal service to educational, cultural, civic, and charitable endeavors.

A few of the best known projects to which they have contributed are:

The N.A.A.C.P.; The Urban League; The United Negro College Fund; The National Scholarship Fund for Negro College Students; The United Nations; UNICEF; Mental Health; March of Dimes; Mental Retardation; The Emotionally Disturbed Child; Rehabilitation of the Physically Handicapped; The Arts; and National Mississippi Project.

Service?

As "Private Citizens", Girl Friends are wives, mothers, homemakers, career women (doctors, lawyers, educators, social workers, business executives, politicians, etc), who keep abreast of community needs and the issues pertinent to this supersonic age.

They attend meetings of educational, civic and cultural groups. They talk to local and national leaders about community and universal problems of humanity. They work as volunteers at a "grass roots level" with the needy, culturally disadvantaged and indigent. They serve on boards, commissions and committees. In other words, The Girl Friend as a private citizen, believes that the world and every community can become a happier, more fulfilling place for everyone. She volunteers her services to this and always.

Friendship

Girl Friends, most of all, have fun. Their hearts are light and gay. Their creed is friendship and their avocation is a commitment to serve humanity.
