ARTS and Culture CSP
The OPWC founded the Orange Park Community Theatre and continues to support it today. Also, we support the arts within our club with an Arts and Crafts contest for members each spring. Those who receive a first place go on to the GFWC Florida district 4 contest.
Civic Engagement and Outreach CSP
The Woman's Club supports several charities in our community such as Miriam's Basket; American Cancer Society; Waste Not, Want Not; Clothes Closet; and Wreaths Across America. We also support the international organization, Operation Smile, which provides operations for those born with cleft lips. As far as community outreach, the Orange Park Town Manager speaks at one of our club meetings each year to give us an update about the town government.
Education and Libraries CSP
Years ago, the Woman's Club founded the OP Library. We collect and donate children's books to be placed in local laundromats, WIC offices, and Title 1 schools. We collected donations for the Pace Center for Girls. We also donated clothes, personal hygiene supplies, and other items to the Orange Park High School Outrigger program for students with needs.
Environment CSP
The Woman's Club supports Nike-Reuse-A-Shoe which recycles worn athletic shoes. We plant a tree each year for Florida Arbor Day. In 2019, one of our speakers was a Master Naturalist who spoke about native versus invasive plants. This committee made bee houses to help the bee population in our area.
Health and Wellness CSP
We support the Breast Cancer fundraiser and walk each year. We collect eyeglasses to be reused by the Lions Club, and soft drink can tabs for Wolfson Children's Hospital. Each year we have a service day at Waste Not, Want Not and the Clothes Closet.
