Overview
Mission
The Westborough Civic Club was organized in 1975 for the sole purpose of benefiting the Town of Westborough and its residents . The Club is comprised of civic-minded men and women from all walks of life who derive satisfaction through personal participation in fund raising activities in a dynamic, social, community-based organization. Our primary fund raising activity is the sale of Christmas Trees each year between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Members do all the work (with a little help from our friends), including: ordering materials and stock, setting up the tree lot, handling thousands of trees and wreaths, tree sales and clean-up. The proceeds of the tree sale are returned to the community in the form of donations to many town organizations.
What it reported doing in 2025
Donations made to the Westborough community in calendar year 2024 included: Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Food Pantry, Westborough Garden Club, St Luke's Giving Tree, Library Memorial Fund, Westborough High School Scholarships, Assabet Valley Scholarship, Charlotte Spinney Vision Scholarship Foundation, Assabet Valley Pastoral Council Center, Westborough Unified Sports, Community Harvest, Knights of Columbus Thanksgiving Dinner, Westborough Amateur Hockey, Westborough Little League and Softball, Westborough Turkey Trot, and many similar annual discretionary donations voted by the membership.
