International Women’s Club of New England
Maine, USA
Building up, reaching out: friendship and giving in Maine since 1992.
About us
The International Women’s Club of New England gathers women of every background, belief and point of view to encourage goodwill, friendship and mutual understanding. Our logo joins a palm tree, a symbol of shelter for the traveler, with the pine cones of our New England home.
For more than three decades we have raised and donated over $362,000 to organizations that help women and children. Long winters bring festive gatherings, and St. Patrick’s Day tells us spring is on its way.
Our club was founded in 1992 by Anna Kristina Sawtelle. From the start we pledged to support local charities every year, and our Holiday Fair has been held every year since our founding.

- Annual fashion show and charity fundraiser
