The Pleasanton Chapter of National Charity League, a mother-daughter service organization, has started its annual membership drive, which runs through Jan. 15.
“We are excited to welcome new mothers and daughters into our chapter,” chapter president Wendy Costanzo said. “Our aim is to develop the leadership skills and community service mindset of young women while strengthening the mother-daughter bond.”
Membership is open to women with daughters in the sixth grade who live in Pleasanton. The chapter currently has about 300 members.
The Pleasanton NCL chapter has volunteered more than 7,400 hours in its 2019-2020 year for 33 local philanthropies including Hively, Meals on Wheels, Open Heart Kitchen, PUSD, Fertile GroundWorks and the Pleasanton Senior Center. Recent activities include making Halloween-themed crafts for Pleasanton seniors, gardening at Fertile GroundWorks, and making face masks for John Muir Medical Center and Open Heart Kitchen.
Interested mothers may attend one of the prospective member meetings, being held via Zoom. Contact membershippleasanton@nclonline.org.
