GFWC Hollidaysburg Area Women's Club

Our History Our club is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) community service organization founded in 1938 and is comprised of women from the Hollidaysburg area. Clubwomen are passionate, enthusiastic volunteers who come from different backgrounds and share a common interest in giving back to our community. The community outreach initiatives of club members are encouraged through various committees and projects. We are proud to be members of the General Federation of Women's Clubs and GFWC Pennsylvania. Grants are awarded to other 501(c)(3) organizations located in Blair County. Scholarships are given to local high school and adult students. Grant and Scholarship programs are supported by area businesses, club members, and the community through the fundraising efforts of our Clubwomen. In 2008, the 70th anniversary of GFWC HAWC, the club received recognition from the Borough of Hollidaysburg for our years of service and dedication to our community. The ceremony and reception included honors from local and state representatives including Representative Jerry Stern, Senator John Eichelberger, and Congressman Bill Shuster. We celebrated our 75th Anniversary in April 2014.
