WE ARE COMMITTED WOMEN & MEN WHO DERIVE TREMENDOUS INSPIRATION FROM THE EXAMPLE OF FIRST LADY HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON.

In September, 1992, inspired by Mrs. Clinton's 25 years of work on children's issues, as well as her admirable role model as a working woman, wife, and mother, co-founders Ruth and Eugene Love of Silver Spring, Maryland, announced formation of the Fan Club.

The Love's idea & enthusiasm spread quickly throughout the U.S. Four years later, there are 22,000 members in more that 100 chapters. In September 1996, to express her appreciation for the club's activities, Mrs. Clinton hosted the Loves and chapter coordinators at the White House for briefings, tours, and a reception and photographs.

In Contra Costa, we organized in 1996 to (1) encourage the First Lady to continue her invigorating advocacy, especially on behalf of women, children, youth, and (2) strengthen efforts in our country to address the issues and support the programs for which Mrs. Clinton is providing leadership on national and global levels, particularly education and health concerns.

We represent a broad range of occupational choices, including homemaking. We are active members of many organizations, such as the American Association of University Women, Commission on the Status of Women, League of Women Voters, National Organization for Women, National Women's Political Caucus, Older Women's League, and others.

We call and write elected officials, we send letters to editors of newspapers, we prepare information for newsletters & publications, we publicize events & arrange for media coverage, we plan & stage meetings, we mobilize participants for demonstrations, we attend events featuring Mrs. Clinton, we call in to talk shows, we network. We will be very active in '96.

We are an all volunteer, nonprofit, grassroots organization. A Contribution of $5 includes a life-time membership, lapel button which reads First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton Fan Club, and newsletters.
