GFWC New Tampa Junior Woman's Club

The GFWC New Tampa Junior Woman’s Club (NTJWC) was founded in 1997 and is a member of the General Federation of Women’s Clubs (GFWC), the largest and oldest women’s volunteer organization in the world.  Our club, one of 8,500 in the world, currently has 37 members. Junior clubwomen are dedicated to community improvement by enhancing the lives of others through volunteer service while being actively engaged in creating families, raising children, pursuing careers, pursuing higher education, and caring for aging family members.  

The mission of the GFWC New Tampa Junior Woman’s Club is to respond to the needs of our community and nation.  We have helped numerous local and national organizations.   

Through six community service program areas-Arts, Conservation, Education, Home Life, International Outreach and Public Issues-we offer our time and talents through such projects as:
