The NFRW’s website has tons of ideas: http://www.nfrwcaringforamerica.org

"We share our Republican values by living them in our community every day ~ not just at election time." This is the motto of the Laurel County Club and Debbie Harville would like to extend that idea across the state.
“The goal of the Caring for America is to energize local clubs, attract new members, retain current members, provide positive public relations and register new Republicans by working in the community and showing that Republican women do care. . . At the national level the NFRW wants to show that Republican women are caring, responsible members of their community and that they would commit to at least one service project.”
Debbie will be sharing ideas for community involvement throughout the year. Here is an idea from the Logan County Women. They planted and maintained a patriotic garden at a local nursing home. This could be easily adapted to an “adopt-a-spot.” It could even be done in the shape of a flag.
