- The Coloured Women's Club of Montreal (CWCM) was founded in 1902 in Montreal, Canada, by seven African-Canadian women and has made significant contributions to Montreal's Black community. It ran along the lines of the American National Association of Colored Women's Clubs, and its first president was Anne Greenup. One of its first projects was attending to veterans returning from the Boer War. During the interwar years, the Club women taught on diet, management of money, and sanitation. It provided support to new mothers, clothes for new arrivals from the West Indies and America, soup kitchens, a black history library, and a burial ground at Mount Royal Cemetery. In 1907 the Club helped found the Union United Church. The Coloured Women's Club Millennium Cookbook was compiled by Club members in 1999. In educating on the black diaspora in Canada, the Club organises tours including tracing routes on the Underground Railroad. The Anne Greenup Solidarity Prize, awarded annually by the Quebec Government, is named for the club's first president. (en)
