PWRWC Celebrating 40 years 1970 -2010
The Prince William Republican women’s Club was the first Republican Women’s club in the County. It was founded in 1970 to educate, inform, and motivate women to become political activists and to run for elective office. Its mission and goals include increasing the effectiveness of women in support of good governance at all levels; enhancing links to the Prince William County Community through political education and informational activities; and promoting the principles of the Republican ‘Party. We strengthen the Republican Party by recruiting, training and electing candidates; advocating the Party’s philosophy and initiatives; and empowering women of all ages, ethnicity and background in the political process. We work to increase our Club’s Leadership Legacy in the number of Prince William County Republican women who hold elective office such as in the U.S. Congress, on the PWC Board of Supervisors, on the PWC School Board, as PWC Clerk of the Court and in other leadership roles at all levels of government. Many of our members have been appointed to senior positions in our County, State and Federal governments, as well as on State Boards and Commissions. We also have PWRW women who have been elected to leadership positions in Republican Committees and serve as paid members of campaign staffs or on the staff of elected officials.
