Islands Women’s Club
To All Women Residing in The Islands 2026-2027,
We invite you to join our Islands Women’s Club (IWC) meeting to get to know us and learn more about what we stand for – Community and Friendship. We meet at the Islands Community Center, 825 S. Islands Drive West, Gilbert, AZ, on the second Wednesday of the month (September through May, excluding December) at 6pm. The purpose of our meetings is to provide a friendly and fun social gathering with an interesting guest speaker or activity and a brief business agenda.
There is so much to enjoy for a nominal annual dues of $40…and boy, do we have have a GOOD time!! IWC hosts a number of special interest groups, such as, book clubs, bunco games, pickle ball, luncheons, cards, and movies. We have an active social committee and busy happy hour committee that plan entertaining and unique outings and gatherings near and far. Thanks to our creative, talented, and dedicated members, our events are always a lot of fun and perfect for cultivating relationships.
As this year’s theme of Celebrating Community and Cultivating Friendshipsreflects, IWC is a non-profit organization, dedicated to community service and building neighborhood friendships for almost forty years. With over 100 dedicated members, 2027 will mark IWC’s fortieth anniversary as an organization. We are very excited for this milestone!
In addition, IWC will be supporting our elected charity, Positive Paths, with a gala FUNraiser on February 13th, For the Love of IWC. We will dine and dance our way through a wonderful evening, as we raise money for Positive Paths. We also support local philanthropic organizations, such as, Paz de Cristo, Matthew’s Crossing, United Food Bank, Children’s Hospital, and more, in the form of volunteering our time and gathering donations while we enjoy each other’s company.
We truly hope you will visit one of our monthly meetings to see what we are all about — Community and Friendship! Let us welcome you into the group. The friends you’ll make are truly the treasure of IWC involvement. We look forward to seeing you soon!
