Becoming A Member
Welcome to the Elsinore Woman’s Club, where friendship meets purpose and service has been our heartbeat since 1906. We’re a warm, energetic Sisterhood of Service: local women who roll up our sleeves to lift Lake Elsinore together.
Our projects touch every corner of community life, sparking creativity through the arts, supporting education, caring for our environment, championing healthy lifestyles, building global understanding, and responding to local needs right here at home. Every effort is hands-on, heartfelt, and designed to make a real difference.
Two Signature Programs We’re Proud Of
Domestic Violence Outreach & Awareness
We stand with survivors. Through partnerships with local agencies, we assemble crisis-care kits, host donation drives, share prevention education, and connect families to resources that help them find safety and rebuild. Our goal is simple: restore dignity, offer hope, and break the cycle of abuse.Scholarships for Local Students
Education changes lives. Each year, our club awards scholarships funded by member donations and community fundraisers. We support graduating seniors, trade/vocational students, and returning adult learners—recognizing academic effort, community service, and the promise of brighter futures right here in Lake Elsinore.
Membership is open to all women in Lake Elsinore and neighboring areas. Whether you’re a lifelong resident or brand new in town, you’ll find genuine, in-person connection here, not just likes and follows. Sometimes we land in a new place and crave real community; this is where you’ll find it.
We gather one Thursday each month for lively programs, inspiring speakers, and plenty of camaraderie. Show up for a single Thursday and you’ll stay connected to meaningful service, new friendships, and the joy of giving back.
Joining the Elsinore Woman’s Club isn’t just a title, it’s a chance to create lasting impact and be part of a legacy 100+ years strong. If you’re looking for purpose, friendship, and a way to help your community thrive, this is your place.
Ready to say yes to service and connection? Become part of our Sisterhood of Service today and let’s continue transforming lives in Lake Elsinore and beyond, together.
