The Woman's Relief Corps (WRC) is a charitable organization in the United States, originally founded as the official women's auxiliary to the Grand Army of the Republic (GAR) in 1883.[1] The organization was designed to assist the GAR and provide post-war relief to Union veterans.[2] The GAR had been created as a "fraternal" organization and refused to allow women to join up until the creation of this auxiliary.[2] It is largely dedicated to historical preservation of research and official documentation related to the WRC and GAR.[1]
