GFWC Princeton Women's Club The GFWC Women's Club of Princeton is the oldest community service organization in Princeton. Mrs.

The first award won by the Princeton Woman's Club was a prize for the best decorated car in the industrial parade in 1917. In 1921, the club took up the project of improving the West Side Cemetery, which was one of the most neglected spots in the city. The Woman's Club organized the first Princeton Public Library on March 11, 1933, with 110 books borrowed from the Wisconsin Free Library Commissio

n and a few books donated by club members and other citizens. Olive Doyle, a Woman's Club member, was the first librarian and served for many years, donating her services. In 1950, we offered an Educational Scholarship of $25 to a senior girl going on to school, preferably in nursing. Today we give a Scholarship of $400 to a senior going on to school in the medical field.
