American Association of University Women - BREAKING THROUGH BARRIERS

With education and philanthropy as its foundation, Stanwood-Camano Branch of AAUW encourages personal growth and friendship while providing members opportunities to affect their community and demonstrate that, together, women empower each other to realize equity for women and girls.

Our local branch has continued to be a contributing partner to the Stanwood, Camano Island and Arlington communities since 1936.

Purses With A Purpose

Benefit Luncheon and
Live & Silent Auctions of Designer Purses

September 21, 2013

A prominent endeavor for our branch is raising funds to provide scholarships to third and fourth year university women. For 30 years we sponsored the longest running juried, invitational art show of local area artists.

Our new avenue of fundraising is Purses With A Purpose, a benefit luncheon and live and silent auctions of designer purses scheduled for September 21, 2013. All proceeds from our public fundraising events support our college scholarship program
.

Our community activities include:

Developing and maintaining the volunteer math tutoring program at the elementary schools for the Stanwood-Camano School District.

Providing scholarships to university women during their junior/senior year.

Recognizing Stanwood High School, Arlington High School, and Lakewood High School scholars in STEM (science, technology, engineering and math).

Sponsoring the Candidate Forum during national and statewide elections.

Helping families during the holidays in partnership with the Community Resource Center and local food banks.
