International Affairs Department

The International Affairs Department supports international service agencies, sponsors education on world issues, and provides opportunities to host foreign visitors.

  • In 1977 our club assembled and distributed informational materials to new international students


  • During 1998-1999, we made dolls for Operation Smile, collected eyeglasses for the Ukraine, and books for Ghana and Mongolia.

  • We partnered with the Governor's Office in 2001-2002 to assist the North Carolina Hispanic Community.  This produced a Spanish language emergency preparedness tape, the "Vaccinations for Everyone" video, and a Spanish Translation of the Germ Patrol, a book on immunizations.

  • IN 2004, the department provided support for the Heifer Program, an international program to assist women in poverty stricken communities to be come more self sufficient.
