Welcome Newcomers!
It's Our Priority to Help You Feel Welcome
The American International Women's Club offers several programs and
activities especially for newcomers. Please click on the titles for
more information about their various schedules.
AIWC
Welcome Desk
If you enjoy meeting people, have some time to contribute to Club
activities, and would like to give a helping hand to other newcomers to
Geneva, then the Welcome Desk is the place for you. As the "front desk"
of the AIWC, it is the first point of contact for the public and
potential new members. You will be part of a dedicated group of
volunteers who keep the Desk running Monday through Friday, year round.
It is a great way to get involved and learn about Geneva life. To join,
just call the Club and ask for the Welcome Desk Co-ordinator.

Hotline
The AIWC Hotline is a free, weekly e-mail information service whereby
questions can be easily answered and problems quickly solved by drawing
on fellow members’ collective knowledge and experience of living and
working in Geneva.
The Hotline gets you the answers you need to make things happen and it
also includes a paid Classifieds section (21 CHF for one ad in three
successive issues) to help you get rid of items you no longer need.
Take the tiring leg-work out of getting to know Geneva and enjoy this
valuable resource offered exclusively to Club members.
Registering is easy, just e-mail us at: aiwchotline@gmail.com or call
Catherine Mills at 022 343 63 52.
