Dear Members:

       There’s a quote of Oprah Winfrey’s we love: “I believe luck is preparation meeting opportunity.”  The opportunities within AAUW have opened many doors for members, volunteers, and the underprivileged. Being part of AAUW inspires us to contribute to the community as we stay true to its mission and vision.

       AAUW’s core objective is to prepare its members and the community for the world’s countless opportunities.  Some people may be considered luckier than others.  On the contrary, the ”lucky“ ones are simply more prepared.

       Excellence is the most effective deterrent to economic barriers and sexism.   By living according to AAUW’s mission, you build excellence.  Through “advocacy, education, philanthropy, and research,” the world has a fair chance at experiencing what it’s like to be lucky.

       As AAUW co-presidents we are fortunate to share our values with you.   We are here to listen to you.  We want to understand what your goals are and how AAUW can help.

       As members, it’s clear you believe that education and community outreach are the avenues to personal freedom.  Most importantly, we ask you to own that personal freedom and share it with others.  Soon, you will discover another world that you will never want to stop sharing.   We invite you to expand AAUW’s membership and encourage your friends and family to join us as we embark on this journey to change the world.

       Again, in the words of Oprah Winfrey , “For every one of us that succeeds, it’s because there’s somebody to show us the way.“   Let AAUW show you the way.

Jo and Helen
