Three simple words which embolden the members of Cherry Creek Republican Women to serve our constituents with honor and integrity.
To engage others through events focused on fellowship and political philanthropy; to enlighten, providing content and resources to form educated decisions regarding the issues and candidates, and to empower; giving our members a passionate voice and platform to be heard in the halls of political discourse and an active role in the electoral process.
These tenants of engage, enlighten and empower speak the truths which are our foundation.
