AMERICAN  ASSOCIATION  OF  UNIVERSITY  WOMEN FREMONT,  CALIFORNIA  BRANCH Breaking through barriers for women and girls

DID YOU KNOW?   ……How much AAUW branches contributed to the association in 2008? In 2008 AAUW branches, members-at-large, foundations and corporations contributed over $3,500,000 to the AAUW Foundation for women's graduate fellowships.   That made our Foundation the largest non-university source of graduate fellowships for women.  It sounds like a lot but that much money only funds three to six percent of the women who seek more education.  There’s so much more to do. Thanks to Jo Harberson, who shared AAUW’s past, present and future at a Branch Leadership Workshop on August 1, 2009.  We are passing along snippets of her history gems in this weekly column.
