The Magnolia Point
Women's Club (MPWC), with over 200
members, focuses on community service,
common interests, friendship, socialization
and support of the community and
its members. Members enjoy each
other's company, attend meetings
where they keep informed and learn,
and invest in their town and region.
The MPWC is driven and enriched
by a philanthropic purpose. Our
charitable efforts make a significant
difference in our community —
while providing our members with
a powerful sense of satisfaction,
belonging and fun. There are numerous
opportunities to get involved, whether
by leading committees, evaluating
grant requests, planning fundraisers
or volunteering time. The possibilities
— and rewards —
are many.
In just ten years of existence the club has donated more
than $140,000 to those in need, primarily in Green Cove Springs
and Clay County. These accomplishments are largely due to
the total support of the Magnolia Point Residents and the
tireless efforts of countless club member volunteers.
Funds are raised through luminary
sales during the Holidays, member
directory ad sales, the Charles
E. Bennett Elementary School (CEB)
Christmas Drive and other projects.
One hundred percent of the CEB donations
and one hundred percent of the funds
from all other fund raising projects
go directly back to the community.
Some of the Club’s donations
include:
- $30,500 in scholarships to Clay High School students
- $57,000+ to support the students at the Charles E. Bennett
Elementary School
- $8,200 to the Food Pantry, plus tons of food and volunteer
hours
- $10,400 to the Outreach Program of Green Cove Springs
Great friendships
have been built while accomplishing
our goals. Although we work hard
towards achieving these goals, we
also find time to include educational
and entertaining activities while
making sure that there is an abundance
of fun, friendship and laughter
along the way. To
