Canadian Federation of University Women Calgary North
About Canadian Federation of University Women Calgary North
Since its establishment, the Canadian Federation of University Women Calgary North has served as a vibrant community hub for women in Calgary, AB who are passionate about fellowship, education, and social justice. We are a multicultural group of like-minded women who gather not only for professional development and self-improvement, but to build lasting friendships and create tangible positive change in our communities. Our welcoming approach means that while we value post-secondary education, we welcome all women who share our commitment to advancing women's rights and supporting vulnerable populations, particularly children.
What sets CFUW Calgary North apart is our integrated approach to community engagement. Members enjoy the camaraderie of specialized interest groups—ranging from book clubs and hiking to advocacy work and study groups—while simultaneously contributing to meaningful causes. We've supported homeless populations through clothing and meal donations, provided pneumonia prevention vests for premature babies in Africa and India, and partnered with local organizations like the Women's Centre of Calgary and CUPS preschool. As part of the broader Canadian Federation of University Women and an affiliate of Graduate Women International, our Calgary North chapter members also have a voice in national and international conversations on women's rights and human rights. By joining us in Calgary, AB, you become part of a legacy of women working together to build a more just and equitable society.
