What AAUW in Fort Bend is doing
|
|
Contribute spare change to the
Time for Change bag.
Dimes and quarters pile up
throughout the year and are
sent to the LAF Fund along with proceeds
from Sweets for My Sweet in February.
|
|
Every year, the Fort Bend branch meets its goal for
a per-member contribution to AAUW's Educational Foundation and Legal Advocacy Fund.
This has made Fort Bend a Platinum 21st Century recognized branch of AAUW/Texas and of national AAUW Association.

|
Spread beauty and good cheer. Support EF
and the Brookwood Community with an annual
poinsettia sale. Beautiful plants and
wreaths, ordered in October, are delivered
in time for holiday entertaining.
