Fanny E. Minot (née Pickering; September 27, 1847 – March 4, 1919) was an American public worker, social reformer, charitable organization leader, and clubwoman who was at the front in many lines of public service, including charitable, educational, church and social work. She held a strong interest in all those movements of the 20th-century which brought women into prominence. Minot served as president of the Woman's Relief Corps (WRC) of Concord, New Hampshire, of the State of New Hampshire, and lastly, as the 22nd National President of the WRC.[1] She was also a member and regent of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR).[2]
