The Anderson Valley Unity Club came into being December 8th, 1923. The Unity Club became affiliated with The County Federation and the State Federation in 1925 and the General Federation of Women’s Clubs in 1950.
The GFWC is an international organization of community-based women’s clubs with headquarters located in Washington, DC. It is one of the oldest and largest women’s service organizations dedicated to community improvement through volunteer service. It encourages women to improve their skills, expand their rights and apply their abilities and special sensitivities to society’s problems.
The Unity Club sponsors the Anderson Valley Lending Library, which was established in 1953. The Garden Section of the Unity Club sponsors the annual Wildflower Show. Funds raised at the Holiday Bazaar and April Wildflower Show are used for Youth Development, scholarships for AV students, support for Drug awareness, the local Food Bank, and donations to other groups which need assistance.
