The Florida Federation of Women's Clubs was formed in 1895 in Green Cove Springs, Florida as part of the General Federation of Women's Clubs. Children were at the heart of much of their work. They petioned for laws against child labor and for compulsory education. Their love for convervation led to the formation of Royal Palm Park that later became a part of the Everglades National Park. There are 14 districts in the state of Florida and the GFWC Viera Woman's Club is in district 6.
