The Polish-Canadian Women's Federation was founded by Jadwiga Dobrucka in 1956 in order to organize women of Polish origin for the purpose of preserving their cultural values and makinga positive contribution to Canadian society.

The organization is charitable in character and based on democratic and Christian principles.

In the past 46 years, our organization has grown to 19 branches across Canada. Our Federation is an active member of the Canadian Polish Congress Head Executive Board,
The Canadian National Council of Women, and the World Polish Women's Federation. Our Federation publishes a semi-annual bulletin entitled "Informator", which helps to communicate, and exchange ideas and achievements.

An important goal of the Federation is to protect the rights of women and to respond to women and family issues in order to preserve family value. We work towards upholding our Polish culture while helping new immigrants integrate in to the Canadian culture.

In order to get necessary funds to carry out our plans, we organize many activities. Some of these activies include social gatherings, national festivals, and public lectures of interest to Women. Ongoing events include conferences, concerts, poetry and art competitions and other cultural events. Belonging to the Federation does not entail only work, but also a great opportunity to meet interesting people and make new friends, exchange ideas and a great feeling of satisfaction of accomplishments.

We welcome new members into our circle.
