GFWC International Day of Service
The General Federation of Women’s Clubs (GFWC) is united in its dedication to volunteer community service. The GFWC International Day of Service brings together clubs from around the world to stand united against domestic and sexual violence.
Signature Program: Domestic and Sexual Violence Awareness and Prevention
GFWC creates and leads education, public awareness, and service projects for club members and local citizens at the community level; collaborates with national domestic violence networks and organizations; supports existing activities and established programs; advocates for victims and survivors; and provides educational opportunities to survivors.
GFWC aims to be a powerful voice for victims and survivors.
WHRC: Women’s History and Resource Center
Founded in 1984, the GFWC Women’s History and Resource Center (WHRC) collects, preserves, interprets, and promotes the history of GFWC. The WHRC documents the social and political contributions of GFWC clubwomen from 1890 to the present through the GFWC archives and related special collections.

WAY TO GO! A huge thank you to our incredible GFWC members who joined the Legislative Action Center and Took Action.
Because of your efforts, the TAKE IT DOWN Act has passed Congress and is now headed to the President's desk for signature! Together, we are making a real difference!
Thanks to you, victims of having sexually explicit images posted on social media will now have the power to fight back against their perpetrators! The Act criminalizes the publication of both authentic and computer-generated sexually explicit images, mandates their removal by social media platforms, and equips law enforcement with the tools needed to hold perpetrators accountable.
Never underestimate the power of our Collective Voices!
