Mission, Purpose, & Core Values

Mission

Empowering and supporting the Fort Worth Woman by engaging her through various cultural, professional, and philanthropic programs.

The Woman's Club of Fort Worth was founded in 1923 when eleven study clubs organized for the following purpose:

To empower women through educational programming in the areas of literature, history, science, fine arts, and other areas of personal and professional development;
To support and actively participate in civic projects and charities;
Maintain and support an educational environment relating to the improvement and development of its members through its library, lectures, discussions, and meetings;
Maintain and preserve the historical buildings and properties belonging to the Club.

We are a safe and welcome space for women of all backgrounds to learn and share through subjects of common interest.
We maintain a professional atmosphere that supports and empowers women to grow personally, professionally, and socially.
We are responsible for the care and upkeep of our historic property as a venue for our Club community, and as a revenue stream to sustain our mission. Care should be made to maintain the historic integrity of our buildings.
We have a social responsibility to engage strategically in civic and community leadership projects. Giving back through social causes is central to the growth of our club and our members.
We respect all members and will not permit a toxic culture that engages in the spread of rumors, gossip, or bullying toward any member or employee.
