Making donations is now simpler and allows you to designate your support to the programs you care about most.  For those of us in California a new LAF Transmittal Form and “EF” Contribution Form have been developed to handle AAUW Funds donations.  They are available on this website in the Forms & Documents section. The new forms have the fund numbers listed in the instructions and on the forms.  Please note that the person from your branch submitting the forms will not send  them to the California State Office as in the past but to the EF or LAF committee treasurer listed on the form. When the treasurers receive your checks and donation forms they will prepare an Excel spreadsheet and send your checks to National in Washington D.C. for proper branch credit.  Please feel free to contact Rozanne Child, AAUW Funds Director at aauwfundsdir@aauw-ca.org if you have any questions or concerns. Just remember EF is now referred to as AAUW Funds.

At the National Convention in St. Louis in June, California was again the top contributor nationwide to both “EF” and “LAF”.  Thank you California!!  Let’s work together to make 2009 another Banner Year for California. Your commitment to support AAUW Funds reaffirms our Value Promise.  By joining AAUW, we belong to a community that breaks through educational and economic barriers so that all women have a fair chance.
