TAMPA – The General Federation of Women’s Clubs appointed Jolie Frankfurth to the 2026-2028 GFWC Board of Directors as GFWC president-elect.
During the 2026-2028 Administration, Frankfurth will lead the eight region presidents and vice presidents and facilitate the GFWC Learning Academy, the organization’s online training.
Frankfurth traveled to Washington, D.C., in January to attend and present at the biennial GFWC Board of Directors Leadership Conference. The conference provides about 200 GFWC leaders with training to prepare for their new roles in the 2026-2028 Administration.
Amanda Hunter, vice president of communications for the Women’s Suffrage National Monument Foundation, was the keynote speaker for the event. Attendees had the opportunity to network, share ideas and plan for the future administration while developing as a strong collective unit to serve the more than 63,000 members internationally.
Frankfurth began her volunteer career with the General Federation of Women’s Clubs as a GFWC New Tampa Juniors member in 1997. She moved on to GFWC Florida leadership and, for the past 10 years, to GFWC national officer. She has been on the board of directors since 2010.
Jolie and her husband, Dr. Tom Frankfurth, have lived in the New Tampa area since 1992.
