Story

History of The Montclair Women's Club
“Following in Their Footsteps”
In April, 2015 the Montclair Women’s Club celebrates 100 years of fellowship and service to the community. In 1915, twenty-three Montclair Women met in the Parlor of the YMCA to organize a club “to develop individual efficiency, stimulate interest in current affairs, and encourage co-operation in all lines of progress.” Mrs. Jessie Ropes was elected first president and insisted the group join the New Jersey Federation of Women’s Clubs (NJSFWC), which is part of the General Federation of Women's Clubs (GFWC). One month later, the group had grown to 162 members.

It took 14 years before the current clubhouse was opened in 1929. Many important community events have taken place there through the years. Through the NJSFWC , our founding members donated to the soldiers of WWI ; our current members sent Christmas Stockings to the troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.

We are proud of our heritage and strive to live up to our Mission Statement:
The Montclair Women’s Club Inc. which is non-sectarian and non-partisan, is organized exclusively to develop individual responsibility, community focus, educational and current affairs, and for charitable purposes.
