FEDERATION PROFILE

The Delaware Federation's first club was founded in Sussex County. Additional clubs were quickly established in the other counties and the Delaware Federation then affiliated with the NFRW in 1952. Through the ensuing years our projects have been varied, compelling and remarkably successful.

At this time the established Unit Clubs in our Federation proudly participate in community service projects. They enthusiastically support a variety of Americanism programs. In 2007 they helped to sustain the National Wreath program which places beautiful hand made wreaths at Arlington cemetery, as well as throughout other national cemeteries in the U.S.

The Delaware Federation promotes both learning and understanding the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag in schools and they distribute small American flags to each student participating. Members enthusiastically volunteer in every county helping in campaigns; promoting candidates at every level and "Getting Out the Vote". Known as the Diamond State, we are small in size, but we industrially combine our attributes to make an effective and productive Federation.
