WHERE TO REPORT GUIDELINES Guidelines for Reporting . . . where do I report my project? Review the projects listed under each Community Service Project to decide where to report your project(s). Projects listed are from past club reports and each list is not intended to be an all-inclusive list. Lists are intended to give ideas on where to report your projects. Remember that the projects reported must have been done during the reporting year. • For additional ideas and suggestions check bulletin(s) from your current GFWC Florida Chairmen. Website: gfwcflorida.org • The GFWC Manual will list GFWC Affiliate Organizations and program ideas your club may have chosen to do in your community, state and internationally. Website: gfwc.org • Choose the Community Service Program where you think the project should be reported. Remember your club's intent for the project, as that may assist you in deciding where to report. Also, keep in mind that while you can report only in one area, many projects appropriately may fall into more than one reporting area. To illustrate this, items with an asterisk (*) are examples of such projects. When a project falls into more than one area, your club can decide where it is best for you to report that project. For example: If you painted a mural on the wall of a pediatric ward in the hospital, did you do it to decorate the wall or to cheer up the patients? If you wanted to decorate the wall, the project would be reported in the Arts and Culture Community Service Program. If you wanted to cheer up the patients, you would report this in the Health and Wellness Community Service Program.
