As a member of the AIWC, you are also a member of FAWCO. Founded in 1931, FAWCO is an international network of independent volunteer clubs and associations comprising 57 member clubs in 28 countries worldwide. FAWCO serves as a resource and a voice for its members; seeks to improve the lives of women and girls worldwide, especially in the areas of human rights, health, education and the environment; advocates for the rights of US citizens overseas; contributes to the global community through its Teams and The FAWCO Foundation, which provides Development Grants and Education Awards. The organization is a global women’s NGO (non-governmental organization), and since 1997, FAWCO has held special consultative status with the UN Economic and Social Council. 

The Target Program offers opportunities for local FAWCO Clubs to make a global difference. The program: 

• Follows a three-year cycle of issue awareness and education, project selection, fundraising, project monitoring, review and evaluation. 
• Demonstrates the power of FAWCO Clubs working together toward a common goal.
• Increases knowledge and awareness of global issues affecting women.

In keeping with FAWCO’s Resolutions and Recommendations, Target Programs have the overarching goal of improving the lives of women and girls. The FAWCO Board, in consultation with The FAWCO Foundation Board, chooses Target Issues on a revolving basis through our four areas of interest: Education, Environment, Health and Human Rights.

For 2023 - 2025, our club is supporting the FAWCO Target Project, Awesome Blossoms.
