Westford Women’s Club Through the Years
Founded in 1976 as the Westford Junior Women’s Club by Claire Schneider of Classic Travel, the club began with 30 members and grew to over 100 in the 1980s. Many early members were new residents and young mothers seeking community and connection.The club earned recognition from GFWC Massachusetts for its contributions, including nursing home luncheons, school book fairs, and creating the Historic Tour of Westford for 3rd graders. Its long-running “Breakfast With Santa” fundraiser supported scholarships at Westford Academy and Nashoba Tech. Members also volunteered at the Town Health Fair, local blood drives, and the Strawberry Festival.
In 1995 the club became the Westford Women’s Club, ending questions about age limits and broadening membership.
