Our purpose is to stimulate intellectual activity, to promote an interest in public affairs and to afford an opportunity for the expression of a united opinion, to promote an interest in educational issues and in the maintenance of high standards of public education, and to provide bursaries and scholarships, to facilitate fellowship and co-operation among university women, and to preserve and be responsible stewards of Hycroft, a City of Vancouver designated heritage building.

Hycroft, in the heart of Shaughnessy, is our members’ home away from home. We preserve our heritage house with its original interior, terrace, and beautiful walled garden - a welcoming place to enjoy, to meet, and to entertain family and friends.
