South Fraser Women’s Services Society memberships are issued on a calendar year basis (January - December). This means that even if you become a member or renew your membership part way through the year, the membership will still be up for renewal during the month of January in each calendar year.

Membership includes:

• Invitations to special events throughout the year
• Access to our lending library
• Quarterly Newsletters

Some good reasons to be a member of South Fraser Women’s Services Society:

• Adding your voice to others in the struggle for women’s equality
• The satisfaction of supporting and helping women to reach their potential
• Provide South Fraser Women’s Services Society with information on issues that impact women’s lives and suggestions on how we can respond to them.

A large membership base is a pre-requisite to receiving donations from some foundations - donations we need to run our FREE programs and services. Join us in showing the government and other funders that our community understands and supports the issues that are essential to women’s equality, including freedom from violence.

To become a member or make a donation, download the MEMBERSHIP FORM.

SFWS is governed by a Board of Directors.

We actively seek women from our community who are interested in women’s issues with a desire and commitment to donate their time and expertise in order to promote and maintain an organization focused on women’s issues in the South Fraser Region.

Women who have the ability to work with a vision, possess leadership and or/ fiscal management skills and aspire to participate in the stewardship of a non profit society are encouraged to apply.

Board members attend a monthly meeting and occasionally participate in committee work.  A minimum of a 1 year commitment is requested.

All Board members are required to be members of the society in good standing.
