About Canadian Federation of University Women St. John’s

The Canadian Federation of University Women St. John's is a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing women's education, rights, and social progress throughout St. John's, NL and the surrounding region. As part of Canada's largest active women's group with over 7,000 members across 96 clubs nationwide, the St. John's chapter leverages its extensive network and expertise to deliver impactful community programs and advocacy initiatives. The organization's primary focus includes fundraising for educational scholarships and bursaries, contributing over $30,000 annually to support women pursuing post-secondary education at Memorial University, the Marine Institute, and College of the North Atlantic. Beyond local scholarship work, the St. John's chapter actively participates in national advocacy efforts addressing critical issues including pay equity, child care policy, employment insurance, and women in non-traditional occupations. The organization works collaboratively with the Canadian Human Rights Commission and maintains consultative status with the United Nations, enabling members to engage in international policy discussions on gender equality and women's empowerment. Community outreach initiatives include support for girls' education in Africa, contributions to the national CFUW Charitable Trust funding post-graduate opportunities across Canada, partnerships with the MUN food bank, and sponsorship of the Kiwanis Music Festival. With approximately 100 members in St. John's, the organization welcomes university graduates, post-secondary graduates, students, and associate members who support its mission to improve the status of women and girls while promoting peace, justice, human rights, quality public education, and environmental sustainability.
