Roswell Woman's Club

What Roswell Woman's Club does

Roswell Woman's Club (RWC), legally Roswell Woman's Club, Inc., is a private 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization incorporated in Georgia in 1973 (IRS recognition 1979) and continuously operating in Roswell since its founding in Spring 1948. The organization is an all-volunteer body of approximately 200 members with no paid staff and no physical office (mailing address only: P.O. Box 522, Roswell). Its core function is community fundraising and grantmaking for the North Fulton area, with three primary programmatic outputs: college scholarships to graduating high school seniors ($2,000 each), educator grants to Fulton County teachers, and nonprofit grants to community organizations serving North Fulton residents. Since 1997, RWC has disbursed over $2.9 million to the community, including $150,000 across 86 grants and scholarships in 2025.

RWC's revenue model is event-driven and multi-channel, anchored by three annual signature fundraisers held along Canton Street in Historic Roswell: the Spring Home & Garden Tour (flagship fundraiser showcasing four homes), the BOO Y'aLL Scarecrow Contest (capacity-constrained at 90 lamppost spots with a $1-per-vote DONATE2VOTE mechanic), and Sip & Stroll at BOO Y'aLL (ticketed food and drink tastings at $55 single / $100 pair). Supplementary revenue streams include annual membership dues, individual donations (both unrestricted and restricted to scholarships, educator grants, or charitable partners), and a five-tier corporate sponsorship program (Dogwood, Lily, Peony, Tulip, Zinnia) with RBM of Alpharetta as the 2026 presenting sponsor of the Spring Home & Garden Tour. Distribution to recipients occurs through direct grant administration, an annual awards ceremony held at St. David's Episcopal Church, and recurring community service partnerships with organizations such as MUST Ministries, The Drake House, and North Fulton Community Charities.

The organization is governed by an elected 2026-2027 officer corps led by President Jane Mykleby, with four Vice Presidents, a Recording Secretary, Treasurer, Assistant Treasurer, Parliamentarian, and Chaplain. Geographic scope is fixed to North Fulton (Fulton County schools north of the Chattahoochee River), and marketing is conducted through community events, local earned media (Roswell City Lifestyle Magazine, Neighborhood TV), Facebook, the organization's website, and email newsletters. There is no technology product, proprietary platform, or AI component to the business; the underlying "platform" is the recurring event franchise and the member volunteer network that executes it.

Scale indicators7 records

Recent moves7 records

Direct peers

• Junior League of Roswell / Alpharetta (if applicable): Hypothetical or local Junior League chapter serving the Roswell/North Fulton area, if one exists. Conceptually a direct peer — women's volunteer service organization with similar grantmaking and community-service orientation in the same geography.
• Junior League of Atlanta: Atlanta-area women's volunteer service organization that trains members, fundraises, and distributes grants to local nonprofits. Closest direct peer to RWC: same women's-club model, similar community-impulse grantmaking in the greater Atlanta market, with a much larger member base and budget.
• General Federation of Women's Clubs of Georgia: State-level federation of local women's clubs conducting community service, fundraising, scholarships, and civic grants. Directly comparable membership-driven, event-funded, grant-distribution model; RWC is structurally similar to the local chapters GFWC organizes.

Broad incumbents

• Community Foundation for Greater Atlanta: Large regional foundation managing endowments and grantmaking across metro Atlanta. Comparable grantmaking function but at vastly greater scale, with professional staff and an endowment; RWC operates as a grassroots counterpart serving a smaller geography with all-volunteer execution.

Regional players

• Chattahoochee Nature Center: North Fulton nonprofit operating a nature preserve and educational programs on the Chattahoochee River. Regional player and direct RWC grant recipient; comparable geographic focus and nonprofit status, with overlapping member/donor base.
• North Fulton Community Charities: North Fulton-based social-services nonprofit serving thousands of local families with financial aid, food, clothing, and training. Comparable geography and beneficiary base; RWC is a grantmaker to NFCC, but NFCC is a peer in the North Fulton civic-philanthropy ecosystem with overlapping donor pool.
• The Drake House: Roswell/North Fulton nonprofit providing transitional housing and skills development for at-risk families. Regional player with overlapping beneficiary community; RWC channels grants to Drake House, but the two occupy adjacent positions in the same local civic ecosystem.

Emerging players

• Altrusa International of Atlanta: Service organization of professional women focused on literacy, education, and community grants in the Atlanta metro. Comparable women's-service-club model and grantmaking focus; smaller footprint than Junior League but operates in overlapping Atlanta-area geographies.
