Eligibility for Membership
CFUW has played a critical role in most women’s issues in Canada for over ninety years. Our federation is now opening its doors to welcome all women who support our mission and values. We believe that the vitality of our organization and the leadership that CFUW undertakes will be enhanced by this action. We want to reflect the diversity in our communities and to include women with a wide variety of talents, experience and education. All members will benefit and we can work together to improve the lives of women and girls here at home and internationally.
CFUW is a non-profit, non-partisan, self-funded organization working towards the improvement of the status of women and girls, the promotion of quality public education, and advancement of human rights, justice and peace. We are affiliated with the international organization IFUW. Membership is open to any woman who supports these goals.
