The Granbury City Council officially designated Sept. 28 as Granbury Woman’s Club National Day of Service during a regularly scheduled meeting Sept. 17. This proclamation is in honor of the organization’s commitment to fighting food insecurity within the community.
According to the city’s proclamation, read by Place 2 Councilman Eddie Rodriquez, this announcement coincides with the General Federation of Women’s Clubs’ designation of the same day as a National Day of Service, in which all members come together to raise awareness about food insecurity and take action.
The General Federation of Women’s Clubs is a 133-year-old international organization with more than 60,000 members dedicated to community improvement through volunteer service.
As an active member of the organization — and to honor the National Day of Service — the Granbury Woman’s Club will support Mission Granbury, Neighbors Feeding Neighbors and other local groups Saturday, Sept. 28, to provide meals, nonperishable food and food kits for those with food insecurities.
To highlight this endeavor, Mayor Jim Jarratt and other members of the city council proclaimed Sept. 28 Granbury Woman’s Club National Day of Service to battle food insecurity in Granbury.
