A Powerful Resource for Friends and Others . . .
FWCC offers three powerful databases to bring you information about the Quaker world and ways to be involved.
- Find a Quaker organisation by name, location, or type of service, or browse the whole list. If you would like your organisation added, you can submit it for approval.
- Browse our service projects around the world or search by name, location, project needs, or find a match for your volunteer skills. You can submit or update a project to be listed, too.
- Our Find Friends database will answer your questions about when and where a yearly meeting is taking place, whether there are Quakers in your travel destination, and more. This database is of yearly meetings and isolated friends. Please click on a link to a particular yearly meeting's website for information on local meetings.
