Friendship Force of Greater Orlando
Membership
Join us in helping to promote cultural understanding across people and countries.
General meeting are held five time a year, every other month. Along with club business, they usually include programs highlighting travel, cultural exchanges or contacts.
​
Meetings are normally held at the Meeting Room of the Maitland Public Library, 501 Maitland Ave. S, Maitland, FL 32751, from 3:00 - 5:00 pm on a Sunday afternoon. (see Calendar)
​
To join, contact our Membership Chairperson, Maggie Shoemaker by email at shoe4hire@aol.com. Or better yet, come to a general meeting and meet us, and talk with our membership chairperson there.
Even if you can't or don't want to travel, there are many other aspects of involvement. The mission of Friendship Force is building global goodwill through personal friendships. This can be accomplished in many ways. When we have an Incoming Journey, you might consider being a home host, a day host, a driver, or a small group dinner host. Throughout the year, you can simply attend social activities to build friendships with fellow club members who have an interest in the goals of Friendship Force International.
