Commission for Women
We are an active and engaged club and the largest GFWC Woman’s Club in Maryland. Throughout the history of the Woman’s Club of Chevy Chase, our mission has been to promote the welfare of the community in our corner of the State of Maryland. Our philanthropy focuses on support for women and children, with a particular interest in education and professional advancement for young women.
WCCC holds events that are open to the community as well as fundraising events throughout the year to generate funds for grants to non-profits and community groups. Annual events include luncheons organized by our International Affairs, Literature and Music Sections, all of which feature guest speakers. The Club also organizes a Winter Cabaret, the Community Art Show & Sale, Santa’s Workshop, an Artisan Market, and the Halloween themed Mystery Mansion. Upscale/Resale, an annual pop up resale market, funds our scholarship program.
WCCC’s philanthropy is expressed in sustained engagement with local nonprofits. This activity connects interests and programs, represented by our various sections, with both ongoing service as well as special events and projects. Our philanthropy is broadly expressed through:
Educational Scholarships
The WCCC administers and grants several scholarships that each assist individual college students. In 2026, scholarship awards totaled nearly $30,000.
Direct Grant Making to Non Profits
In Kind Donations
WCCC donations, purchases, and projects contribute to physical donations utilized by charities throughout the region.
Community Events
The Club hosts several events open to the public which enrich the offerings of the surrounding community:
Members’ Volunteer Service
The Club hosts, and members of the Club assist, with the Red Cross Blood Drives held monthly at the Clubhouse.
Annually, the WCCC Club members contribute thousands of hours and thousands of dollars to our community through scholarship grants to youth, direct grants to non profits, gifts in kind to non profits, as well as offering the priceless monthly blood drive. We also contribute to our community unique experiences through the Community Art Show, Mystery Mansion, Santa’s Workshop, and the Artisan Market. In supporting our overall community, as well as area non profits, we are living our motto every day: "Community, Commitment and Caring since 1913."
