Organizational Overview

The Dayton Catholic Women's Club was organized in 1923 for the purpose of uniting all Catholic women into one club in order to promote a spirit of unity and cooperation among the Catholic women of Dayton and the vicinity. Over the past 100 years, thousands of faith-filled women have served the Dayton community by following the mission of the Club. Today, the purpose remains much the same – to convene Catholic women in the Greater Miami Valley in activities supporting charitable giving, spiritual and educational development, and community service.
