ABOUT US

90 Years of Community Service

The Richmond First Club founders shared a common vision of a permanent organization that would inform the public and political leaders about a broad range of civic issues, policies and solutions. The spirit of enlightened activism that initially inspired the formation of the club in 1919 lives on in the club's active study of and involvement in current issues in the Richmond metropolitan area. During its 90 year history, the club has provided leadership on a number of issues critical to the quality of governance in the region. Through its work, the Richmond First Club promotes responsible citizenship and government.

Vision

To be the leading civic organization to conduct research into major issues and policies that affect the Richmond metropolitan area; to provide a public forum for discussion; to raise public awareness; and to advocate specific solutions.
