About
Founded in 1926, The Junior Women's Club of Verona is a 501(c)(3) organization under the umbrella of the New Jersey State Federation of Women's Clubs and the General Federation of Women's Clubs.
Our members form strong bonds through volunteerism as they work to address the diverse needs of the community, which include promoting education, preserving natural resources and supporting our Seniors as well as our neighbors in need.
