The Cobb County Republican Women’s Club is an organization of like-minded individuals who are committed to good government. We believe that the best government is smaller government that is close to the people and responsive to the people’s needs. While our members are all female, we support both male and female Republican candidates for elected offices on a local, state and national level. Men who adhere to Republican values are associate members of our club.
The Cobb County Republican Women Club (“CCRWC”) was chartered in April of 1964. Our club and each individual member is also a member of the National Federation of Republican Women and the Georgia Federation of Republican Women.
We impact Cobb County by helping to elect as our government officials men and women who share our Republican values. We sponsor political workshops that equip Republican candidates to run for and secure elected political offices. We have assisted in the election of Republicans to all three branches of government here in Cobb as well as at the state and national level.
Our two major roles are to help prepare women for positions in government and to act as a supportive arm for our Republican men who seek to serve our community, state, and country by working diligently to ensure their election or re-election.
We encourage, support and provide opportunities for each of our members to be politically active. The opportunities are numerous and varied and include but are not limited to becoming a convention delegate, volunteering for phone banks, stuffing envelopes for candidates, and hosting fundraisers for Republican candidates.
We influence legislation through state and national advocacy programs.
We provide scholarships to college students through our Babe Atkins-Byrne Scholarship Fund. The $1,000 Babe Atkins-Byrne Scholarship was named after Baby Atkins-Byrne who dedicated 20 years to the Republican Party and the CCRWC. The scholarship is awarded to a bright young person, who has the philosophy and beliefs of the Republican Party.
We realize that by joining together we are able to greatly influence the issues that impact our county, our state, and our nation. We invite you to join with us as we continue our rich legacy of building good government.
