Apopka Womans Club

Post Office Box 336

The Apopka Woman's Club was chartered in 1957 with 60 members, and was federated in the same year.

Our Club's Constitution states: "The object of the Apopka Woman's Club is to bring together women in an organization where they can use their energies and abilities to benefit themselves and their community by promoting civic, cultural, educational and social welfare."

Opportunities are provided for the development of talents, abilities and skills for each individual who participates. The many opportunities afforded through club work provide a threshold from which each individual can develop an overall awareness and deeper perspective of community, state, national and world events that affect our quality of life. Every member becomes keenly aware of the privileges and responsibilities of belonging to the world community.

Club work is on a voluntary basis, with members participating in activities of personal interest. All members, however, participate in all fund-raising events. 2006 will be the 45th year for the Art & Foliage Festival, our main fund raiser.

The General Federation of Women's Clubs is the largest and oldest nonpartisan, nondenominational women's volunteer organization in the world. This outstanding organization was founded in 1890.
