The American Women's Group of Languedoc-Roussillon

The AWGLR is an international group of women with an American majority, all seeking the same outcomes - friendship, good company, stimulating group activitives/events. We come together to share our passions, like reading and writing;  cooking and wine tasting; donating and volunteering; assisting and mentoring in order to work towards a common goal: to enjoy our lives together. We also raise funds for causes close to our hearts. Please do not hesitate to contact us at awg.grapevine at Gmail.

If you were unable to attend the Galette party in January but are interested in catching up on what you missed during the brief FAWCO presentation, check out the short video that covers the highlights of last fall's Regional Conference in Paris,

Dear Friends,

Happy New Year 2025!

During the challenging times in which our world finds itself, our spirits can be lifted by the important work that AWGLR does in our local community and around the world.  Last year we raised 1750 Euros and supplied member volunteers to Montpellier-based, Table d’Anouk, which works to alleviate food insecurity in our local community.  

We also support the FAWCO target project, which for the past several years has been “Awesome Blossoms”, an urban farming project in Kenya. 59 member clubs in 29 countries raised over $160,000 in support of this target project.

You’ll have a chance to socialize and learn more about our club’s work with FAWCO at the upcoming Galette and Cider Party on Sunday, January 19th, 3pm at the Jacques 1er d’Aragon Meeting Space on the ground floor. Noel, our FAWCO member liaison, will be presenting. You should have received an Évite with more details in your email.  Thank you to our Events VPs, Wendy H. and Barbara for organizing.

In this new year, I invite and encourage any of our members to propose an activity or outing for our club - social or philanthropic - to actualize this year.  Please contact me with your suggestions.

Jennifer Hodge Jerzyk

2024-25, President AWGLR
