[1] Seventy-percent of public libraries in Texas were created through the work of the members and clubs of the TFWC.
[3] The ideas and networking opportunities for many different women's club members from across Texas helped shape the TFWC.
[1] From 1901-1903, Anna Pennybacker was president, and under her tenure, helped establish a "traveling library and art collection" and raised $3,500 for women's scholarships at the University of Texas.
[10] Later, TFWC would be involved in establishing the creation of the Texas State Library and Archives Commission.
[15] TFWC worked to influence women to run for local school boards.
[18] Margaret Sanger recognized that receiving the endorsement of the TFWC for the promotion of family planning for women would be important to helping Texas support birth control.
[19] Sanger was able to obtain an endorsement of birth control from TFWC with the help of Katie Ripley of Dallas in 1936.
[19] Ripley was able to get TFWC to "pass a resolution recommending that birth control be provided by state and local public clinics" in 1937.
