Today we celebrate 104 years of the Queensland Country Women's Association.

💙 Some milestones from our remarkable history:

🌻 1920s - Branches rapidly spread across the state, creating vital social connections and advocating for better healthcare, education and services.

🌻 1930s & 1940s - Members support communities through the Great Depression and World War II, providing practical assistance, comfort and care.

🌻 Decades of advocacy - QCWA campaigns for improved maternal and child health services, education opportunities, transport, communications and rural healthcare.

🌻 Supporting communities through disasters - From droughts and floods to cyclones and bushfires, QCWA members have continually stepped up to help Queenslanders in times of need.

🌻 Preserving traditions - Generations of members have shared skills through handcraft, cooking, cultural and educational programs that continue to thrive today.

🌻 Looking to the future - QCWA continues to advocate for issues impacting women and communities, including housing affordability, ageing into poverty, health services and community wellbeing.

For 104 years, QCWA members have embodied friendship, service and resilience. From the bush to the beach, our strength has always been our people and our commitment to making a difference.
