Our Club
​
The Culver City Woman's Club was founded over 100 years ago in 1920, the same year as its founding. With many social, cultural
and philanthropic activities it has been and continues to be a vibrant and contributing member of the community. Together, our
national, state and local organizations offer leadership in training and an opportunity to develop an individual’s talents to the fullest.
We are a culturally diverse group of caring and passionate women finding creative and fun ways to raise money and collect
items needed by members of our community. In keeping with the spirit of our founding members, we award yearly scholarships to
Culver City school students as well as donate to Meals on Wheels, No Limits for Deaf Children, SAVES, Lange Foundation,
and a host of other worthy causes.
The Culver City Woman's Club is a member of the General Federation of Women's Clubs (GFWC) and the California Federation
of Women's Clubs (CFWC). When you become a member of the Culver City Woman's Club, you automatically become a member
of both the GFWC and CFWC.
The GFWC is an international women’s organization dedicated to community improvement by enhancing the lives of others through
volunteer service. Collectively, we are Living the Volunteer Spirit.​ It was organized in 1890, bringing together various women’s clubs
from across the country. GFWC unites its more than 60,000 members in affiliated clubs in every state and more than a dozen countries
through a common purpose of community service.
​
The California Federation of Women’s Club (CFWC) has a membership base of more than 11,000. The California members carry out
the clubs’ projects of education, social welfare and civic interests. Clubs offer leadership and personal growth opportunities to
members while enriching the lives of others through philanthropic service. Its motto “Strength United is Stronger” reminds us that
more can be accomplished when we unite our efforts to serve others.
