The American Women's Club of Düsseldorf, also known as the AWCD, was founded in 1959 and has been a member of FAWCO (Federation of American Women's Clubs Overseas) since 1971. The AWCD seeks to further the companionship and mutual interests of its multicultural members. They offer support and assistance to their members through a variety of programs and to the community through contributions to recognized charitable organizations, especially those serving the needs of women and children.
The AWCD is an international group with approximately 400 members. Seventy per cent of their members are American or wives of Americans, about fifteen per cent are German, and the remainder represent about 25 different nationalities. For newcomers, they're there to help you get settled, to answer questions you may have about living in the Düsseldorf area, and to help you meet new friends.
If you are interested in becoming a member, please contact their membership chair to fill out a membership application.
