Partner Spotlight: Shot@Life - Saving Children's Lives, One Vaccine at a Time! 💉🌍

At The Woman's Club of Lake City, we are proud to support initiatives that make a tangible difference in the lives of children worldwide. Today, we shine a spotlight on Shot@Life, a campaign by the United Nations Foundation that aims to educate, connect, and empower Americans to champion vaccines and save children in developing countries.

👶 Every 20 seconds, a child loses their life to a vaccine-preventable disease such as pneumonia, diarrhea, measles, or polio. But together, we can change this devastating reality.

💪 You can make a difference by:
🌟 Encouraging others to learn about vaccines and their life-saving potential.
📚 Educating yourself and your community on the importance of vaccination.
🗣️ Advocating for policies that support vaccine access for all children.
💖 Donating to provide vaccines to children in need.

🌍 Let's join hands to ensure that every child, regardless of where they're born, has access to life-saving vaccines. Together, we can save lives and create a healthier, brighter future for all.

In honor of Women’s History Month, we would like to celebrate Lassie Goodbread-Black who was recognized as a Great Floridian in 2000. Born in Lake City in 1904, she became the first woman to enroll in the University of Florida. She entered the College of Agriculture in 1925, eventually becoming the first female to graduate with an agriculture degree.

She became a Columbia County home demonstration agent, teaching modern agricultural skills and began a gardening and food preserving group within The Woman's Club. This group became The Lake City Garden Club. She was also named Mother of the Year by the State of Florida. Her accomplishments are lengthy and do not end here. As is true for many of the women who have joined The Woman’s Club of Lake City.
Every woman who has become a member of The Woman's Club of Lake City and participated in its growth and development for 117 years. The accomplishments of the women who have participated in The Woman's Club of Lake City are far too lengthy to complete here. Service to Our Fellow Man has been the Watchword of The Woman's Club of Lake City.

We are always looking for new members and the next generation of women to lead our organization. To learn more, visit https://womanscluboflakecity.org/. 🌺

March is Women’s History Month, a time to celebrate women of every generation and walk of life. The General Federation of Women's Clubs (GFWC) has many movers and doers. Founded in 1890, GFWC's roots can be traced back to 1868 when Jane Cunningham Croly, a professional journalist, attempted to attend a dinner at an all-male press club honoring British novelist Charles Dickens. Croly was denied admittance based upon her gender, and in response, formed a woman's club-Sorosis. In celebration of Sorosis 215 anniversary in 1889, Jane Croly invited women's clubs throughout the United States to pursue the cause of federation by attending a convention in New York City. On April 24, 1890, 63 clubs officially formed the General Federation of Women's Club by ratifying the GFWC constitution.

The determination of women across the country led to Women being given the right to vote in 1920. Clubs just like The Woman’s Club of Lake City were instrumental in that movement. Each family has its own private history of women who have helped shape the values and have kept the love in the family unit. 🌺
