AWC Philanthropy Committee
The AWC of The Hague has actively participated in philanthropic activities throughout its history. Each year we receive requests for and donate monies to charitable community organizations. In addition, since 2002, The American Women's Club of The Hague has raised over 500,000 Euros to benefit Breast Cancer research, education and advocacy in The Netherlands. The AWC of The Hague has successfully lived up to the definition of philanthropy on many different levels.
