CFUW is an inclusive, non-government, non-partisan organization open to all women regardless of education level. It is committed to the pursuit of knowledge, the promotion of education, the improvement of the status of women and the advancement of human rights through scholarships, advocacy, education, and fellowship.
We hold monthly meetings, organize lectures with informative speakers, and often plan trips. We have several Interest Groups that meet regularly during the year to provide networking, fun and fellowship to our Members.
