What’s New in Funds
Submitted by Marge Hobbs, Funds VP, and Robbin Ward, Co -President

2023 has ended and looking back I would like to extend heartfelt gratitude for your dedication and leadership throughout the year! I hope you are as proud as I am to work for and support an organization with outstanding credentials — and, as always, your work and commitment have been instrumental in advancing AAUW’s mission and impact. This is the time of year that we reflect on what we’ve accomplished and what we still have left to do. We can continue to support our mission and have a lasting impact by keeping our resolutions. I have already checked off one of my New Year’s resolutions… I have already donated to AAUW.

How easy is that?! You too can keep your resolution and support our mission at the same time. We tend to support each other and help each other keep our New Year resolution. Let’s support each other and deserving young women by getting those checks into the branch. You too can meet one of your resolutions and feel good about your accomplishment. Here’s to 2024 and the opportunities it holds.
