About NJWC

The Naples Junior Woman’s Club is a charitable, tax-exempt organization dedicated to promoting empowerment of people, providing access to education, and enhancing the lives of others through volunteer service. We continue to reach-out to our local community through support of emerging charitable organizations, under-funded programs, and those in need of a helping hand. As our membership has grown, the dedication and passion for philanthropic pursuits of each member has bettered our club’s ability to positively affect our community.  

NJWC Member Pledge

​

I pledge my loyalty to Junior Club Women.
By doing better than ever before
what work I have to do:
By being prompt, honest, courteous:
By living each day
trying to accomplish something.
Not merely to exist.

NJWC Member Collect

​

Keep us, Oh God, from pettiness; let us be large in thought, in word, in deed.
Let us be done with fault-finding, and leave off self-seeking.
May we put away all pretense and meet each other face to face without self-pity and without prejudice.
May we never be hasty in judgement and always generous.
Let us take time for all things.
Make us to grow calm, serene, gentle.
Teach us to put into action our better impulses, straightforward and unafraid.
Grant that we may realize that it is the little things that create differences, that in the big things of life we are as one.
And may we strive to touch and to know the great common human heart of us all-
And, Oh Lord God, let us forget not to be kind.


Mary Stewart, April 1904

We have pledged to reach out to those that seek to actively serve the charitable needs of our community and continue our efforts for growth and community impact. We endeavor to support those groups who need us most and venture to participate with local emerging charitable organizations, under-funded organizations and those that simply just need more assistance. We believe in the power of each individual involved in the NJWC and their ability to make a difference.

 

In 2021 NJWC is going to spread its wings into some NEW and exciting philanthropic projects. Our organization has aligned with several amazing organizations in the Naples area, including The Shelter for Abused Woman and Children, Grace Place, Children's Advocacy Center, and Youth Haven.
