The Italian Women's Society of Santa Maria Goretti Church works to
to promote awareness of Italian culture in the Italian community,
as well as present annual awards to individuals for their
contribution to the community. The Society was formed in
1986 by Father Augusto Feccia, former Pastor of the Santa
Maria Goretti Parish in Edmonton, along with the National Congress
of Italian Canadians, Edmonton District, and other Italian
societies and organizations.
