I know many young people that where able to get a higher education because of the scholarship fees this group had available. They do good work for our future generations.

I have been involved in Creston 4-H for the past 13 years. The Creston Women’s Club has always involved our young members as part of their community projects. They call on our young members to help work side be side with them. It has been a great experience for everyone involved from the parents to the young members.

These ladies make up a wonderful organization that supports our community by providing scholarships. They are available to residents of Creston to be use for not only college, but trade schools or pursuing the arts as well. I have been so proud to be a part it. There's just something so positive about knowing you may have even a small part in making someone's dreams and aspirations come true.

The Creston Women’s club has been serving the small rural community of Creston since 1984. Raising funds through hard work & dedication to provide local scholarships & fun community experiences by bringing people together & sharing their valuable time. I attend the Halloween Hot Dogs, Christmas in Creston, Spaghetti Feed & Bingo Burger Bash to donate locally & have fun knowing my donation is used wisely. I don’t know what we’d do without this fantastic group of volunteers.

The Women's Club provides this tiny community with big service: a spaghetti feed to fund scholarships and feed the community and visitors during a big bike ride; a Bingo Burger Bash that brings games and food and fun to our community garden during wonderful June evenings; trick-or-treating and hot dogs to families on Halloween; gifts to be distributed to any child who takes part in the annual Creston Christmas Eve gathering; plus scholarships for people seeking any further education (college or trade school or performing arts or otherwise). Hard-working, small group of dedicated community members. Thank you.

I'm testing this to see if we can leave reviews without creating accounts. I'm tired of having to create accounts everywhere. I really appreciate the work the women's club does, particularly providing special community events and scholarships for continuing education.

I've been involved with the Creston Women's Club for about 11 years now and they are a wonderful group of women who care deeply about their community. They give their time, money and heart to raise money for scholarships to help kids, and adults alike further their education by going to college, trade school or pursuing the arts. The club welcomes all ages. Some of the women involved have lived here 35+ years while some are brand new. All are welcome. It doesn't take up much of your time and it is a great way to get to know your community. The club meets the first Monday night of every month (except a few months during the summer) in the trailer behind the community center. Feel free to just drop by and see what it is all about. You'll have a great time.

Creston is a small rural community with a big heart. The ladies of the Creston Women's Club (CWC) are all volunteers who work hard all year long with the main goal of providing scholarships to deserving local students who need a little extra help to achieve their educational goals. Additionally they are big supporter of the effort to create a local Community Center that can be used by the many clubs and families in the area. The CWC is a great club for local women to join to get to know the community. Since Creston is rural our properties are spread far and wide, but the sense of belonging is strong and the enthusiasm of the CWC members for helping those who need it is ever present and appreciated by the community.

Creston is a small town that accomplishes plenty because everyone pitches in. The Creston Women's Club provides scholarships to Creston residents of all ages and interests. We raise money with local, fun events like the BINGO Burger Bash in early June each year. We collaborate with other organizations to keep our community a lovely, safe place to live. CWC is an important part of keeping in touch with each other.
