Cheverly Community Organizations
More organizations are listed on the Town of Cheverly Website.
Ward 4 Civic Association (W4CA)
Founded in 1960, the Ward 4 Civic Association was instrumental in desegregating Cheverly, and continues to advocate for the well-being of all Ward 4 residents. It does this by sharing information on issues affecting Cheverly as a whole and Ward 4 in particular (such as community development, school redistricting, traffic, and the physical environment), and by engaging with residents and public officials.
Meets monthly, every 3rd Monday of the month at 7 PM (virtually during the pandemic). Contact W4CA for further information (Cheverly4thWardCA@gmail.com).
