Who We Are

Founded in 1889, the Woman’s Club of Rutherford (WCR) provides opportunities for community service, fellowship, education and leadership through participation in meaningful projects as well as programs of the New Jersey State Federation of Women’s Clubs (NJSFWC).  Individual skills, talents and abilities are developed while members work to support the arts, advocate conservation efforts, advance education, promote healthy lifestyles and encourage civic involvement.

Organized in 1894, the NJSFWC is the largest volunteer women's service organization in the state and a member of the General Federation of Women's Clubs (GFWC) located in Washington, DC, with more than 60,000 members.

The GFWC is united in its dedication to volunteer community service. While diverse in age, interests, and experiences, all clubwomen are united by a desire to create positive change in their communities.

     * To have the opportunity for friendship while working together toward common goals

     * To have a voice in policy making

Our members' interests are varied and diverse and range from fundraising, arts & crafts, education, social services to public affairs, conservation and the arts.  We have pot-luck lunches, dinners, theater outings, community garage sales and many other great activities, all while making a difference in our comunity.
