Mission Statement

The Women's Club of South County has been a member of the national GFWC since 1962.

​

The Women's Club of South County has raised and donated hundreds of thousands of dollars which we have matched with thousands of volunteer hours.

WCSC meetings usually are held on the fourth Tuesday of each month from September through June (except November). Most meetings are held at 5pm at the Narragansett Community Center.    

 

The Club's April meeting and December Holiday Luncheon are held at local restaurants.

 

The Team Leader Council (TLC) also schedules and hosts meetings to review the progress of each Team, assignments and the status of on-going activities.

 

In addition to reports from the co-presidents, treasurer and team leaders, meetings often involve presentations by groups, such as South County Habitat for Humanity, Day One, RI State Police K-9 Search and Rescue Program, and Welcome House, or by Individuals, e.g. Angela Gonzales, more commonly known as AGONZA, is a social worker and Latina Activist known throughout Rhode Island, New York, and Massachusetts for her social awareness murals.
