About UsThe New Dominion Women's Club is a civic organization, based in McLean, Virginia, committed to promoting, encouraging, supporting and cultivating the civic, cultural, educational and/or environmental welfare of the community through volunteer service and/or financial contributions while providing an opportunity for fellowship among women.
Members are asked to donate their time and talents whenever possible to our volunteer activities throughout the year.

Members are also encouraged to join in other activities and social events, such as our monthly meetings generally held the third Thursday of each month, coffee mornings, and more. |

Our History |
The New Dominion Women's Club began in 1968 when eight women met with the intention of forming the Junior Women's Club of McLean. In 1975, the club was restructured and in 1991, the club voted to become a general club under the Virginia Federation of Women's Clubs and was renamed the New Dominion Women's Club. The club chose to focus it's projects on Arts, Conservation, Education, Health and Home Life. In 1996, the club adopted the mission statement below. In 2001, NDWC was approved as a 501(c)(3) organization. Today we are over 40 members strong and work with many local groups to carry out our mission.
