The Windsor Junior Woman’s Club (WJWC) is a non-profit organization whose mission is to “encourage involvement in charitable and civic activities and raise funds to distribute to local charities and causes we are passionate about.”

WJWC provides women (18 years and older) a variety of ways to serve the Windsor community, stimulate leadership qualities, exchange ideas, talents and friendship. We like to have fun while we work!

Members of the WJWC are involved with Windsor High School scholarships, the yearly Shad Derby Coronation Ball and Festival, and various community initiatives. Members also organize seasonal fundraisers, and is the only club in town that sells cotton throws with historic Windsor landmarks.

The WJWC celebrated 55 years of service in 2024, and is a member of the Connecticut Junior Women, Inc. (CJW).

Come see what we are all about! For more information, please feel free to attend any of our general meetings or an upcoming event. We look forward to meeting you!

Windsor Junior Woman's Club is a diverse group of women committed to improving and serving the community.


Scholarships are given each year to graduating Seniors of Windsor.

A scholarship in memory of Mary Ellin Messina, a founding member and first president of the Windsor Junior Woman’s Club, is awarded to the candidate that demonstrates exceptional service to her community.
