The Future Homemakers of America is a non-profit youth organization. This organization brings together local, state, and national groups interested in and working toward better homes and family living, provides opportunities to share in solving problems important to home life and it increases opportunities for the develop¬ ment of leadership and intelligent participation. Our national projects for this year are: You and Your Values and Focus on Family. The over-all goals of these projects are to help individuals improve personal, family, and community living now and in the future. Our state projects for this year are: Growing Through Service, Teenagers-Responsible Citizens Now, Appreciating Our Cultural Heritage and The Red Rose Chapter. The F. H. A. has three degrees of achievement. These degrees are given to individual members for their recognition of growth in F. H. A. These degrees are: Junior, Chapter and State Homemaker degrees. Last year our Club was hostess to the County meeting held at Northeast. The theme of our program was: Getting to Know You. It consisted of a panel of foreign students, who gave us information about their particular country. The meeting was a big success. Our F. H. A. purposes are: 1. To promote a growing appreciation of the joys and satisfactions of homemaking. 2. To emphasize the importance of worthy home membership. 3. To encourage democracy in home and community life. 4. To work for good home and family life for all. 5. To promote international good will. 6. To foster the development of creative leadership in home and community life. 7. To provide wholesome individual and group recreation. 8. To futher interest in home economics. 50
