Chapter Spotlight: Ste. Genevieve FCCLA

This post submitted by Brittney Stokes, National Officer Candidate. 

Ste. Genevieve High School FCCLA has many different activities planned for members and our community. Here are some of our activites we have planned for this year:

• The chapter has decided to partner with Alex's Lemonade Stand and work to raise money and awareness for childhood cancer. 
• We sponsor a food drive near Thanksgiving and our chapter makes dinner kits which we give to needy families.
• Around Christmas, our chapter adopts a family.  Members use the money we raise during chapter meetings to purchase presents for them.
• In the spring, we host a traffic safety project.  Last year we sponsored a seatbelt convincer, seat belt checks, an assembly and speaker, and other fun activities.  This year, we're continuing to work on improving awareness of this issue in our community.

This year, our chapter has almost doubled in membership, and these activities have helped us promote FCCLA in our school.  We hope to continue to keep growing and making more people aware of the incredible opportunities available in FCCLA!  Good luck to each of your chapters as you work toward many of the same goals.
