Community Service Programs - CSP

Education and Libraries CSP

The Education and Libraries committee encourages members to foster and support educational opportunities for all ages in our community by promoting libraries and literacy in our community.

“The more that you read, the more things you will know, the more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.” ~ Dr. Seuss

Arts and Culture CSP

This committee encourages members to promote and support arts activities within our club, local schools and the community. GFWC Arts and Culture Community Service Program encourages members to embrace art in whatever form it takes allowing us to change our world into a beautiful caring place.

As Edgar Degas once said, “Art is not what you see, but what you make others see.”

Civic Engagement

The Civic Engagement CSP encourages members to undertake actions that will create a better quality of life and foster a sense of community - locally, regionally, nationally and globally.

"The power of one, if fearless and focused, is formidable, but the power of many working together is better"~ Gloria Sheinem

Environment

The Environment committee encourages our membership to be good stewards of the earth by working to preserve the world's resources, protect wildlife and to savor nature.

"In nature, nothing exists alone.' ~ Rachel Carson

Health & Wellness CSP

The Health and Wellness committee encourages good nutrition, disease prevention, and physical, emotional and mental health.

"When women take care of their health, they become their best friend." ~ Maya Angelou

GFWC Intermediate League of Butler was organized and federated in 1950 to provide a club for women in the “age gap” between the Junior and Senior Women’s Clubs, thus the name “Intermediate League”. The club members have made a difference in the Butler community through volunteer work at ARC, assisting with the special needs classrooms at McQuistion Elementary school, the Kid’s Weekend Backpack Program of the Butler Area School District, the Lighthouse food bank, and VOICe. The Intermediate League was instrumental in the establishment of the 911 service in 1969 in Butler County and the Gateway Garden with the PA Western Conservancy.
