Parksville Qualicum
CFUW (formerly known as Canadian Federation of University Women) Parksville Qualicum is a voluntary, non-profit group open to women in all their diversity who are committed to and actively promote equality, education, and opportunities for children, girls, and women – locally, nationally, and internationally.
Founding CFUW members were trailblazing university graduates at a time when universities in Canada were not yet generally open to women. We want to retain the historical roots of the organization and still open up membership to be more inclusive to women from all walks of life who support the goals and mission of CFUW. Read more about our journey to greater inclusivity here.
We encourage you to explore our site, and we welcome you if you’d like to join us.

The Coldest Night Of The Year
Walk for Oceanside Island Crisis Care Society (ICCS)
The CFUW PQ Ramblers hit it out of the park on February 22. Thanks to our friends, families, and neighbours who sponsored us, we raised over $6000.00 towards the Island Crisis Care Society (ICCS), which helps those experiencing hurt, hunger, and homelessness in our community.
It’s not just about the money – it’s about showing up, coming together, and doing good.
That’s what CFUW PQ does! ♥
CFUW PQ members attended a New Member’s Tea on Feb. 8th
to celebrate women who joined CFUW PQ in 2024/25.
We are delighted to have them join and appreciate all the experiences they bring to our club.
It was a happy occasion and a wonderful opportunity for members to become acquainted with each other in an informal setting.
