Our History
The Greater Pascack Valley Woman's Club came into existence from a meeting in 1989 of 17 young women who were looking for a way to help meet the needs of their community while providing personal growth. They chose a name that reflected the scope of its membership and service, elected officers, and proceeded with the goal of becoming a Federated woman's club. That goal was met in record time. The club was welcomed as a part of the New Jersey State Federation of Women's Clubs in May, 1990 and as part of the General Federation of Women's Clubs in August, 1990.
​
In the ensuing 35+ years, the club has remained a vital part of the Pascack Valley community. We are proud to say that the bulk of the money we raise has remained within our local towns, as we support the Tri-Boro Food Pantry, the Ambulance Corps, Meals on Wheels and provide scholarships at the three local high schools.
​
We welcome others who feel the same way as we do - wanting to help our neighbors while enriching our own lives.
