Our group was organized on February 14, 1980 and sponsored by the Asheville Altrusa Club. It was chartered in June 1980. Two of the ten charter members still remain active.
The theme of the Altrusa Club of Waynesville is "The Builder of Women". We focus on this theme by helping our members to grow personally and professionally while making beneficial contributions to the community. This is accomplished in a variety of ways, including, but not limited to, fundraisers, networking events, social activities and community service projects.
 2011 - 2013 District Three Biennium Goals Utilize the REBRANDING MATERIALS that were presented and adopted at the International Convention in Rapid City, South Dakota in July of 2011. Implement a STRATEGIC PLAN. A template for a club strategic plan will be supplied to every club. Each club will be able to customize their plans to meet the needs of their individual club. Each club will have a goal to increase our MEMBERSHIP with a net of one new member each year of the biennium. Love our ENVIRONMENT by having an electronic newsletter and an electronic yearbook. A template will be provided for both an electronic newsletter and yearbook. Participate in the Governor’s Project: ALTRUSA SOS (SUPPORTS OUR SOLDIERS) Each club will adopt a military person who is assigned to combat duty. If a club does not know of an individual they would like to adopt we will gladly give them a name of a person in need of adopting. Suggestions of what to do for your adopted soldier will also be given to Clubs.
