For almost 75 years, The Mattapoisett Woman’s Club has been helping young people pursue their educational goals by awarding scholarships to high school seniors from our community. The Mattapoisett Woman’s Club especially thanks the community for its continuing support of our biennial Garden Tour and the annual “Taste of the Town” during Harbor Days in July. These fundraising activities make our scholarships possible.
