The American Women's Club of Winnipeg was organized under the
leadership of Mrs. C.P. Walker on May 4, 1917, for the purpose of
doing war work - which work was continued not only during World War
I, but also during World War II.
During peacetime, the purpose of the Club was, and still is "patriotic,
philanthropic, educational, and social" to the advancement of
womankind.
The AWC was incorporated in the Province of Manitoba on September
28, 1922. Because the Club valued the congeniality of mind and
purpose existing between the United States and Canada, it has always
fostered the spirit of true harmony between itself and this, the land of
our adoption. Deeming it a particular privilege to help
philanthropically, its members have donated literally thousands of
hours and dollars in the Winnipeg community.
