The Election’s Over, and AAUW Needs Your Support More Than Ever
AAUW members and supporters stand up to bias and bigotry. AAUW’s voice is needed now more than ever.
We need your support to fight against unequal representation of women in business and government, discrimination and harassment in the workplace and on campus, the gender pay gap, and more.
