About Us

 As a member of your local club, you are also a member of the General Federation of Women's Club - Arizona (GFWC-AZ).

 In 1901, Arizona was still one of the remaining territories within the United States of America.  Although not yet a state, 

the pioneer women of Arizona officially affiliated with the General Federation of Women’s clubs on November 18, 1901. Interestingly, GFWC was not totally recognized as a “state” affiliate until Arizona became the 

48th state of the union in 1912. GFWC Arizona is older than the State of Arizona!
