The AAUW Value Promise: By joining AAUW, we belong to a community that breaks through educational and economic barriers so that all women have a fair chance.

 
   
 
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.
          Margaret Mead (1901 - 1978)
 
   
  We are a group of dedicated women who believe Equity is Still an Issue. Because we are university graduates and believe in the power of education we work at the local level with: mentoring in several forms, tutoring middle-school students, presenting a Math and Science Career Conference for over 170 middle-school girls every year, co-sponsored by Long Beach City college and LBUSD WRAP program, as well as sending carefully selected eighth-grade girls for a week to Tech Trek® Science Camp for girls at Whittier College. At the state and national level we raise funds to provide educational grants, scholarships and legal advocacy through funds and foundations. Additionally, we have fun! There is an array of interest groups that include, but are not limited to: book groups, current affairs discussion groups, bridge groups, at least one educational outing per year, as well as enlightening and enjoyable meetings. Join like-minded women, forge lasting friendships, while helping us help girls and women; you will be doubly rewarded.
