by the Rindge Woman's Club
Operation Santa-This program helps to ensure that all children have a Happy Holiday. Giving Trees with tags for needed and wanted items are set up around town in November and Club members help pickup, wrap, and organize gifts for distribution to needy families. Many hands are needed and all is done very discretely!
Earth Day-In support of Earth Day, a town-wide roadside cleanup is organized on a Saturday in April. The Club publicizes the event and provides special blue bags for trash collection. Each blue trash bag turned in to the Transfer Station by noon earns a raffle ticket for a chance at a prize provided by the Club.
Mother's Garden-In 1977 the RWC took on the project of redesigning, planting, and maintaining the Mother's Garden at the Cathedral of the Pines. Since then, our Club has been providing most of the funding, and our members have been actively caring for and managing this special garden with a bit of outside help as needed.
President's Project-Each year the Club President is allowed funds towards a public project of her choosing that will benefit the Town of Rindge in some way.
