MEMBERSHIP

The Greater Whittier Area AAUW Branch is about to celebrate our milestone 100th year!  As Membership Committee Chair, this is The Year of Growth. I am inviting each of you throughout the year to help us continue the work of AAUW by inviting your friends, family members and casual acquaintances, such as women in yoga class, book club, or other groups you attend, to join us. Invite a guest to a book club meeting, First Friday or a branch meeting. The committee is happy to contact any leads you may have. In the last year or so we have gotten 29 new members!!!

We will be hosting a Meet and Greet in March 2026. The date and time have not been set, but begin thinking of who you might invite. Several new members have joined us as a result of our past Meet and Greets. We had a wonderful event this year.

We have been contacting members who have not paid their dues for the coming year. Dues are now $128, which includes your membership in the California, branch and national AAUW organizations. You can pay your dues on the national website, AAUW.org, or send to:  Kay Clark, 11915 Inez St., #8, Whittier, CA 90605. Checks should be made out to GWA AAUW.  We hope all of you will continue your support of AAUW and remain a member of our Branch – GWA AAUW.   Lastly, I will be ordering new and replacement name tags. The cost is $10 each. I will need payment in advance either cash or check made out to GWA-AAUW. I will pass out a sign-up list at the next branch meeting.
