TCC—The Difference Women Make Together

The Twentieth Century Club (TCC) connects generations of northern Nevada women making a difference in our communities through philanthropy. The TCC produces women’s networking events exploring societal and philanthropic issues.

TCC members share a vision or purpose, but each have a different perspective. Its membership represents a variety of ages and life stories providing for impactful group giving—it is the difference that women make together.

Chartered in 1894, the TCC’s name was chosen to reflect a look to the future and the beginning of a new century. TCC is funded by memberships, sponsorships, and program revenues. It is registered with the Nevada Secretary of State as a domestic non-profit corporation and is recognized by the Internal Revenue Service as a 501(c)7.

Knowing Nevada: TCC in the 21st Century

The Twentieth Century Cook book is available Now!

A Very Special Limited Edition

The fifth edition of Reno's Twentieth Century Club Cook Book compiles recipes from past editions, starting with the 1907 cook book by women whose "modern kitchen" included a coal or wood -burning stove and ice boxes-- a wooden box storing ice for refrigeration. We sifted through hundreds of pages of members' recipes and archives to connect the past with the present. Hidden in the archives were the stories that needed to be retold of the women who founded the Twentieth Century Club in 1894 and whose names adorn many of Reno's public buildings and streets. Their credits include joining in civic movements leading to the establishment of women's voting rights and statewide kindergarten for Nevada's children. The Twentieth Century Club continues its traditions today. This new edition, filled with fascinating local and culinary history is a one-of-a-kind compilation of wisdom and recipes.

The book retails for $21.95 and proceeds support nursing scholarships at TMCC.

December 8th | A Joyful, Hopeful Christmas Luncheon

Celebrate the holidays with the TCC

It’s that wonder-filled, joyful and hopeful time of the year. Christmas trees are trimmed to the background sounds of Mariah Carey’s “All I want for Christmas is You” and Hallmark’s “30 Days of Christmas” movie-thon. What better time to have a holiday party? We have asked local musician and composer Tristan Selzler to make some joyful music for us. Reno-based Tristan Selzler is a multi-instrumentalist, composer, bandleader and educator. He earned a B.A. and an M.A. from the University of Nevada, Reno. Mr. Selzler teaches piano at Western Nevada College, and is Music Director at Unity Center of Reno, as well as Organist for the Minor League Baseball team, The Reno Aces.

Mr. Selzler has performed in settings ranging from small concert venues to jazz festival main stages in Nevada, and many parts of the U.S. West Coast, particularly the San Francisco Bay, and Monterey Bay areas. He has also performed internationally, notably in Tokyo, and Kyoto, Japan.

This holiday luncheon is a fundraiser for the Northern Nevada HOPES. HOPES serves on the front lines of community health, caring for those with the fewest resources and options, many of whom are living in crisis every day.
