ABOUT
Who we are
We are a Diamond Award winning club, part of the National Federation of Republican Women with over 65,000 members nationally, building leaders, energizing communities and keeping America strong. NFRW empowers women from all backgrounds in the political process and provides a forum for women to serve as leaders in the political, government, and civic arenas.
At the Delaware Federation of Republican Women’s Annual Convention in October, the Sussex County Republican Women’s Club was again awarded a Diamond Award from the National Federation of Republican Women.
This award recognizes achievements in campaign activities, programs, community relations and State functions.
Our Communications Secretary, Dianna Robertson, accepted the award certificate of behalf of the club.

SCRWC has been going strong since 1952 and meets the fourth Wednesday of each month September through June. (See Club Meetings above for details of the next meeting.) We offer friendship, political education and fellowship to other women who share our Republican values. We enjoy access to our elected officials that is not easy to have otherwise.
One of our main objectives is to raise money to help qualified candidates get elected and reelected to Sussex County, State and Federal Offices. We hold various fundraisers to help raise the money needed. 2024 will have many candidates that need our support.
Our website offers up to date information on our Club, our county and our Republican Party.
