Who We Are
The CFUW K-W offers a forum for women to meet for camaraderie, intellectual curiosity, involvement and service to the community.
We are a vibrant, welcoming group of around 200 women of all disciplines and ages, meeting to hear monthly guest speakers, and in 40+ special interest groups to share activities, friendship and fun.
Membership is open to all women who share our vision.

Our mission is to promote education,
rights and opportunities for women.
