Scholarships: Each year a scholarship is awarded to one or more St. Michaels High school seniors by the Women’s Club. Over the past forty years, over $200,000 has been given to deserving students planning to attend a four year college or university, a community college, or a vocational/technical school.

The Scholarship Committee has built a strong and valued relationship with the Guidance Counselor at St. Michael’s High School. His ongoing support has been instrumental in encouraging well-qualified students to apply for our scholarship. These top candidates consistently present impressive academic records and come highly recommended by both teachers and employers. With so many outstanding applicants, selecting recipients is always a rewarding—but challenging—task.

As the cost of a college education continues to rise, every dollar we contribute makes a meaningful difference in launching the academic journey of these hardworking students. Our $10,000 scholarship is held in high regard by St. Michael’s students and families, and we are proud to offer this opportunity. The Scholarship Committee is deeply grateful for the many creative ways our club raises the funds that make this possible.

Career Community Connections (CCC) is a group of dedicated volunteer Mentors who, in cooperation with the St. Michaels High School Guidance Counselors, provide students with support throughout the school year.  We work with Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors to help them develop and strengthen their knowledge and skills in writing resumes, cover letters, and application essays for jobs, colleges, and trade schools. Mentors also help students to enhance their interview skills and advance their professional demeanor for success in college and workplace settings.  Our CCC program hosts the school’s Senior Breakfast each year in May to celebrate the graduating class of students.  

New Mentor training and year-round support from experienced Mentors are offered to all volunteers.  We welcome all Woman’s Club members to participate in this gratifying community outreach program.

Please contact Kate Latimer (latimer.kate@gmail.com) or Marianne Dise (marianne.dise@gmail.com) for further information or to join our group of dedicated Mentors.

The Civics Committee is an integral part of the Woman’s Club, serving as the heart of our outreach to the community. Through this committee, we dedicate our time, energy, and resources to support those in need.

Members of the Woman’s Club contribute generously with both financial and food donations to the St. Michael’s Community Center.

We also volunteer our time at the Healthy Talbot Care Packs Program putting food and snacks in bags for the underserved schoolchildren of St. Michael’s so they will have food over the weekend. This Assembly Line takes place one Friday per month from 10:30 am to 11:30 am from September through May at Anchor Church, 620 Goldsborough Street, Easton, MD.  The Civics Committee is calling on members to volunteer for the Care Packs Assembly Line. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact Jean Rittermann (jrittermann@outlook.com). Click here to learn more about the Healthy Talbot Care Packs program.

Each year, the Woman’s Club of St. Michael’s makes donations to many charitable organizations. It is the responsibility of the Civics Committee to compile the list of charitable organizations and submit it to the Woman’s Club Board for approval so these donations can be made.

Our goals for the coming year are to continue the meaningful work we have done in the past and to explore new opportunities within the community where we can offer support and make a difference.
