British Columbia Federation of Women (BCFW) records

Series consists of records made or received by the Women's Centre in its capacity as a member of the British Columbia Federation of Women (BCFW). The SFU Women's Centre was an affiliate member of the BCFW in the Lower Mainland Region. As the BCFW disbanded in 1989, it made a donation to the SFU Women's Centre Development Fund of $1600. This money along with other private donations to the Women's Centre is intended to support work which is feminist and activist in nature but which falls outside the scope of the Centre's usual operations. The Women's Centre Development fund is not used for ongoing operating expenses of the Women's Centre.

Activities documented in this series include annual BCFW conventions; meetings of the Coordinating Collective, the Lower Mainland Region, and the finance committee; correspondence with various action committees (including the Structure Committee, Rights of Lesbians Committee, Women and Prisons Committee, Women's Heath Committee, Women Against Violence Against Women Committee, and Human Rights Committee); budget planning, grant applications, and accounts management; administration of membership applications, renewals and correspondence; and publications and public relations. Records consist of constitution and policy handbook; correspondence; agendas, minutes and meeting support papers; reports and proposals; financial statements, ledgers and daybooks; membership lists and records; and BCFW newsletters, publications and brochures.

Note that some of these records were information copies received by the Women's Centre as an affiliate member of the BCFW; others, however, appear to be the original records of the BCFW itself (e.g. some of the financial and membership records).
