It's a Small, Small World!

During my five years living overseas I was involved with several international women's clubs, one of which was the Federation of American Women's Clubs Overseas (FAWCO). I created their first on-line auction site which was used to raise money for the FAWCO Foundation. My involvement with the group connected me with many new friends all over the world, many whom I have sadly lost touch with since repatriating back to the USA.

FAWCO has a U.S. branch of their organization called FAUSA (FAWCO Alumni USA). Several days ago, they contacted me to help redesign and update their existing website. Imagine my surprise when the person I had to contact was one of the same people I worked with when creating the FAWCO auction website! It really is a small, small world out there.

And what better time to be involved in an international organization than this time of change here in our own country. Their mission statement, "to help them [repatriated members] maintain their international ties in order to bring about a better understanding between the United States and other nations." Enough said.
