Taking Action - Granges of the Future

Today's Grange provides an opportunity to serve by providing leadership for local community service projects is what the Grange does best. Examples of some projects include organizing a softball league, providing hearing testing, building a community center, sponsoring a community fair, staffing an after school child care program, conducting a candidate debate and organizing voter registration drives.

The Grange believes in leadership development, and reaches out to all people in an effort to respond to real needs. It builds a better community by providing the services that people need to live better lives.

In working together, the Grange is able to provide assistance when the government can't and individuals alone aren't strong enough. By working together the Grange builds community and people.

The Grange provides each member with a legislative voice at the local, state and national level. Members are part of a grassroots constituency enabling them to effectively express their views and influence legislative policy at the highest levels of government. The Grange is non-partisan, but it vigorously encourages member participation in the political process.

The fellowship, recreation and social activities in the Grange are developed with the family in mind - children and senior citizens alike are very welcome in the Grange. Competitions in music, art, public speaking, crafts, and a whole variety of other activities are an important part of every Grange's agenda.
