PARSIPPANY — In April, Women’s Clubs across the country support Prevent Child Abuse America in its Pinwheels for Prevention® campaign. Every year, clubwomen raise awareness of child abuse and promote healthy childhoods by planting pinwheel gardens. Prevent Child Abuse America introduced the pinwheel in 2008 as the official symbol of great childhoods.
The pinwheel reminds everyone of their own childhoods and the fact that all children deserve to be happy and healthy. Here in New Jersey, the New Jersey State Federation of Women’s Clubs of GFWC have made Prevent Child Abuse its Special State Project for the next two years. Prevent Child Abuse-New Jersey is the only statewide non-profit dedicated to preventing child abuse and neglect in all forms, for all New Jersey children. For more information on PCA-NJ click here.
The Woman’s Club of Parsippany-Troy Hills is a member of the New Jersey State Federation of Women’s Clubs of GFWC (NJSFWC), which is the largest volunteer women’s service organization in the state, providing opportunities for education, leadership training, and community service.
The April General Meeting is on Monday, April 24 at 7:00 pm, at the Lake Parsippany Rescue & Recovery Building, 100 Centerton Drive. All area women are welcome. For more information call Cathy at (973) 984-0758, e-mail the club at [email protected], click here to view their website.
