AAUW Funds Luncheons
Two luncheons, one in Orange County and one in the SF Bay area, have been planned for you. We will honor the 2010-11 California Funds Fellows and Grant Recipients. This is their opportunity to tell AAUW CA members about their work and our chance to learn about the positive results of our fund-raising.
We are pleased to have Gloria Blackwell, AAUW National Director of Fellowships and Grants, as the keynote speaker.

From the IFUW Conference in Mexico City
Greetings from the 30th triennial IFUW Conference in Mexico City. IFUW (www.ifuw.org)which stands for International Federation of University Women is a collective of Federations (like AAUW) from all over the world. AAUW was a member for many years but financial considerations precluded continued membership. The United States is now represented by Women Graduates-USA (www.wg-usa.org).
