Our Mission - Who We Are

Founded in 1911, we are a strong and vibrant community, dedicated to helping University  of Minnesota students achieve their academic goals through scholarships at the University of Minnesota. We forge lasting friendships by welcoming everyone, caring about each other, and exploring new ideas and places together. We provide educational, cultural, recreational and leadership opportunities for women of all ages and  promote a continuing connection with the broader University community. 

The University of Minnesota Women’s Club is now more than 100 years old, and over that century much has changed. We began as a group for faculty wives, and have expanded to include women throughout the community. We are women leaders who help to shape the future of our community. Our members are increasingly diverse and have several attributes in common:

  • We welcome all.
  • We are interesting and interested.
  • We are actively increasing access to the University by providing scholarships to deserving students.

Check out the wide range of special interest activities as well as our fascinating luncheon programs! University of Minnesota affiliation is not needed.
