The Mills Club of San Francisco was organized by Mrs. William REDDING as a social and literary club. Since the time of its organization the club has served the purpose of continuing friendships made while students of Mills College and has endeavored at all times to represent Mills' spirit
and ideals.

The Mills Club has never had and never will have the large membership of other clubs, due to the fact that only those who have been students at Mills College are eligible.

In keeping with its object, to support Mills in its high aims for the education of young women, the club has been most active in assisting to obtain "A Million for Mills," many members working with Local Fund Headquarters and others with the terms of solicitors to obtain funds from local Alumnae and former students for the Endowment Fund.

When the City Federation Fete was held in November, the Mills Club presented a charmingly artistic booth as the setting for the Maybeck plans for the future Mills which were shown to the public for the first time - a gift to the college by Mrs. Phoebe HEARST.

In 1915 the Club federated with the California State Federation of Women's Clubs and the San Francisco District, and was one of the organizers of the City Federation formed in 1916.
