Clean Our Community gives us one way to give back to our community. Volunteers from member organizations, as well as volunteers from the public, meet to clean a specific area in need. We enjoy each other's company, create interfaith unity, get some exercise, and make the community more beautiful. Students can even earn volunteer hours!

Pack of Hope serves our local community by providing needed nutritious food to eligible school-age children. GWIC members volunteer to help with this successful initiative. It's a great way to help kids and make new friends, and it's one of our most attended interfaith events. Students can even earn volunteer hours!
