We are a social organization. The membership of the Woman's Club of Orange gathers monthly (September through June) for a general meeting where they enjoy a catered lunch, entertainment, and a business update from the President and chairwomen regarding various club projects and activities. The Woman's Club of Orange has a number of special-interest groups known as Sections which meet monthly to socialize and discuss special topics. Current Sections consist of Book Ends, Bunco, Busy Fingers, Canasta, Garden, Health Wise, Ladies of the Night, Shutterbugs and Skip-Bo. Detailed information can be found on the Sections tab. |

The Woman's Club of Orange is a valuable community resource. The chairwomen and their committees work tirelessly to provide educational, recreational and cultural activities for the membership while raising funds to help support many worthwhile charities and philanthropies in the area. The annual Flower Show, held each spring, is one of the largest Woman's Club of Orange events and has been an ongoing tradition since 1937.
Our club contributions and support are focused in but not limited to the areas of literacy and education, women's health issues, victims of domestic violence, veterans, and the environment. Our contributions of time and funds, when combined with other Federated Clubs in General Federation (National), California Federation (State) and Orange District (County) are powerful indeed.
