Frontier Girls Troop 114
There was once a time when the educational theory for girls was based on the fact that a woman’s place was in the home; her education and abilities were carefully centered around present and future homemaking activities. Then the pendulum swung the other direction as women battled for equal rights within the work place. Simply being a homemaker was suddenly considered a lowly position. Frontier Girls recognizes not only the ability of women to excel in the career of their choice, but more importantly the continued need for strong and loving mothers in the home. As long as women bear the children and influence their early years, as long as the children and men of her family love and respect her, they are the most potent force in developing the kind of world and the kind of community in which we wish to live.
We are sending packages to the female troops serving our country. This holiday we almost filled five boxes! If you would like to contribute just give ONM_GUY a tweet. You can learn more about us at www.frontiergirls.com.
