The Woman’s Friend Society has been a positive and often pioneering force in the charitable life of Salem, Massachusetts, since the society’s founding in 1876. Through Emmerton House, providing affordable housing for women, and the outreach work of its committees, the Woman’s Friend Society continues to contribute actively to the Salem community. We are looking to expand our events and outreach in the community and expect to have more opportunities for volunteership, we are have an active membership and are seeking to gain members.
