The Grange In Action program is designed to encourage all Granges to be active in their communities and complete events or projects, no matter how small.

- Submit a 1-page letter size with color pictures and brief caption of at least 3 various events/activities and no more than 6 pictures of the event/activities/meeting that the Grange either sponsored or assisted with from Sept 1, 2022 to Aug 31, 2023 – anything over 1 page will be disqualified.
- The Grange Name, number and state must be on the front of the page.
- On a separate page please include the name, address, phone and/or cell number, and email address of who submitted the Grange In Action.
- Granges that qualify for the 2023 Distinguished Grange award are not eligible for this recognition.
- If one of your events/activities/meetings is on Mental Health, you will qualify as a “Golden Grange in Action”
- Deadline to submit the 1 page to National Grange is postmark or electronic by midnight on September 1, 2023.
- Mail to National Grange, Attn. Loretta Washington – 1616H Street, NW, 11th Fl. Washington, DC 20006.
