This Month's Luncheon Program

Date:  October 18, 2018 
Where: Wisconsin Club on Good Hope Rd.
Time: 11:30 A.M. Social/sign in | 12:00 P.M. Luncheon Program

​Topic: Serving Military Veterans
Speaker: Troy Walker, Dogtagfurniture

Troy Walker is coming with his wife from Minnesota to share his story and cause with us. His charity, Dog Tag Furniture, is the only veteran organization (out of 72,000) that helps fund funerals for deceased veterans whose families receive little government assistance to cover the costs. A veteran who dies only receives $300 from the Veterans Administration and a soldier who dies in combat only gets $2,100 in burial benefits.

Troy's story of actively honoring our military veterans by giving them the dignity of a funeral, began several years ago when his "battle buddy" in combat took his own life and the family couldn't afford a funeral. To help his friend's wife, Troy began making and selling wooden flags to pay for the funeral.

One of our members heard Troy interviewed by Glenn Beck and was brought to tears hearing the story of a decorated military vet who spent his last days in a nursing home and, upon his passing away with no family, would have had no funeral. Many in our membership understand the stress and hardship involved when veterans pass away.

Come prepared to hear the story and buy a flag! Holiday giving season is about to begin - birthdays, you name it. 

We'll have opportunities in our next few meetings to support worthy causes with a purchase.  

Please join us for another terrific program filled with camaraderie and valuable information. Your goodwill, questions, & friends are always welcome!

Our club, the SRWC, is an affiliate of the Wisconsin Federation of Republican Women (WFRW) - one of the largest and most influential women's political organizations in the state. The WFRW has been a state affiliate of the National Federation of Republican Women since 1940.  Our clubs across the state hold local prominence and have the clout to attract political speakers to engage us and harness our grassroots energies! Elected Officials and candidates are eager for our input, our voices, our votes, and our influence.  As a SRWC member, you become part of the WFRW team of approximately 1,000 members and 22 local clubs.

You also become a member of the NFRW by default! The seal of the National Federation of Republican Women (NFRW) is the Golden American Eagle, king of birds, holding a quill pen and standing guard over our most treasured tool of democracy -- the ballot box. Adopted in 1944, the seal portrays the Federation's interest in the protection and integrity of our electoral process. The quill is symbolic of the power of words, especially as contained in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States. With 100,000+ members, the NFRW is one of the largest women's political organizations in the country.
