Thank you for visiting our website.  Iowa Federation of Women's Clubs was organized in 1893, the first state organization to join the General Federation of Women's Clubs on May 19, 1893, and incorporated in 1914.

GFWC/Iowa points with pride to:

  • Participating in the establishment of Iowa's libraries and the State Library Commission.

  • Awarding thousands of dollars each year in scholarships to Iowa students.

GFWC/Iowa is proud to be a member of one of the largest and oldest volunteer women's organizations in the world -- General Federation of Women's Clubs.  We are mothers and daughters; business and community leaders; and women of diverse interests, talents, and backgrounds -- all united by a dedication to community improvement through volunteer service.  Although there is a great diversity in ages, interests, areas of expertise and experience of a GFWC/Iowa club member, all are united by a dedication to implement charitable, educational and service programs in the state of Iowa.
