Welcome

In 1944 a group of women began what today is CFUW Fredericton. At that time, the aims of the Club were to enlarge and deepen educational interests, to promote friendship among university graduates and to stimulate interest in and action on the problems of the day. The goals of CFUW Fredericton continue to be those established in 1944 while encompassing a broader community. For a more in-depth history of CFUW Fredericton, visit our history site.

CFUW Fredericton has established numerous post-secondary scholarships for women, financially supports rural school literacy initiatives and music programs and organizes an annual Book Fair which was first held in 1964. In addition, the Club has established a number of committees and interest groups, advocating for the rights of women and girls and promoting awareness of issues including gender-based violence, food insecurity and pay equity.

In 2024 CFUW Fredericton celebrated its 80th anniversary and in 2026 marked the 59th anniversary of the club’s Book Fair. We hold monthly meetings, enjoy fellowship and social activities including monthly Luncheons and Book Club gatherings, and celebrate the year at our Annual General Meeting.
