Dedicated to Serving and Improving Our Community

Dear WCI Members and Supporters,

Thank you for taking the time to explore the WCI website!  We are proud of all that we do to support our community while having fun, building friendships, and Serving Others Together! So please, take a look around.  

GFWC Woman’s Club of Indio is the oldest service club in the Coachella Valley.  Originally founded in 1912, as the Altrurian Literary Club to provide friendship, social opportunities, and education to the early women settlers, we quickly added a community service component. 

As your president, my goal in serving you is to grow the membership of our dynamic club, engage members, increase community awareness, and to serve the community in ways that exemplify the traditions of the Woman's Club of Indio.  It is my hope that we will increase our service to the community while forming and maintaining friendships. 

Please contact me if you have any questions.

In 1917, we became The Woman’s Club of Indio, and a year later affiliated with the international, General Federation of Women’s Clubs.  We started Indio’s first library, hosted the Valley’s first U.S.O., lobbied to get streetlights, street cleaners and the Mosquito Abatement District.  We continue to evolve and provide the opportunity for our members to become engaged, choosing among many varied service projects in our community.

After more than 110 years, WCI is still going strong.  We have over 100 diverse, active members and volunteer thousands of hours annually.  Best of all, we have so much fun volunteering and fundraising!  As the 76th President of GFWC Woman’s Club of Indio, I am delighted to lead this dynamic team of women and men.  Please consider joining this historic group.  Whether working on a committee, participating in one of our projects or simply supporting our Club as a dues-paying member, there is a place here for you!  We would love to have you join us.
