financial literacy and health awareness, providing women with essential resources and knowledge. The Womanʼs Club of Westwood supports the NJSFWCʼs Girls Career Institute, which offers junior high school girls a mini-college experience at Douglass campus. This initiative is funded by local clubs. Clubs have also supported a variety of non-profits like Domestic Violence Shelters, The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, and Veterans, to name a few. For the next two years, they will support the New Jersey Childrenʼs Alliance. These projects depend on people who plan, organize, educate, and inspire. The Womanʼs Club of Westwood showcases this teamwork, proving that great things happen when passionate individuals unite. Appreciation is extended to our members and foremothers for their contributions to communities and families in need. Madeleine Ciocco for the Womanʼs Club of Westwood CONTINUED ON PAGE 34
