Requests for reasonable accommodations for disabilities or limitations should be made prior to the date of the program or activity for which it is needed. Please do so as early as possible prior to the program or activity so the proper arrangements can be made. Requests will be kept confidential.
The roof of the home symbolizes our past heritage with Extension Homemakers. The letters H (Home), C (Community), E (Education) make it a suitable logo for the state, county and club. The house without walls confirms a commitment to membership open to all, regardless of race, color, creed, religion, sex, age, handicap or national origin.

"PENNIES FOR FRIENDSHIP" ASSOCIATED COUNTRY WOMEN OF THE
WORLD (ACWW)
A volunteer plan, “Pennies For Friendship” enables thousands of women to make a personal contribution to ACWW, their international organization. The annual dues are not sufficient to finance all the work.
The funds are used to: Link institutes and groups in different
countries. Arrange "Exchange Programs"
between groups in different countries.
Publish the ACWW news sheet, "The Country Woman."
Send representatives of women to meetings of the United Nations.
Extend the work of ACWW through the Vice-President's travels.
Finance the Triennial Conference.
Pennies are given at international, national, state and county meetings.
Start a "Pennies for Friendship" and International Understanding collection box in your county for voluntary collections.

NOTES
WAHCE CREED WE, the homemakers of Wisconsin, believe in the sanctity of the home, the cradle of character, blessed by motherly devotion and guarded by fatherly protection.
WE Pledge Ourselves:
to work for the preservation and improvement of home and community life;
to strive for healthier minds and bodies and better living;
to promote the welfare of our boys and girls, the nation's greatest asset;
to be true to God and country and of lasting service to our home and communities.
Mrs. John Meise, Sauk County
WAHCE PRAYER
Dear God, give us the grace to see The blessings which have come from thee;
Give us strength to do our duty, To see in everything some beauty,
Teach us that love and cheerful giving, Tolerance and decent living;
Make our home a place sublime, Where there's no room for hate or crime;
A place where good friends gather 'round; Where laughter, mirth and cheer abound.
Not selfish thoughts, nor worldly greed, Let this, dear Master, be our creed.
Mrs. James M. Hutton, St. Croix County
