They were founded in 1890, GFWC’s roots can be traced back to 1868 when journalist, Jane Cunningham Croly, was not allowed to attend a professional event due to her gender. In response, she formed a woman’s club and invited women’s clubs throughout the United States to pursue the cause of federation by attending a convention in New York City. On April 24, 1890, 63 clubs were officially formed the General Federation of Women’s Clubs by ratifying the GFWC constitution.
