Grand Rapids AAUW, organized in 1949, has one of the largest AAUW memberships in Minnesota. Our approximately 80 members meet 9 months of the year on the third Monday of each month to socialize, share a meal and hear a presentation by a speaker. Meeting times are in the evening, except in January and February when we switch to noon meetings. We generally have a Summer Potluck Picnic in August. Our branch has several special interest groups (Literature Discussion, Walking and Talking, Exploring Our Community) which meet regularly.
Grand Rapids AAUW gives scholarships through two foundations located in Grand Rapids. Our scholarships are for non-traditional women students, age 25 years or older, who are pursuing certification programs or college degrees. We have fundraisers during the year for our scholarships. We have a “Traveler Treasure” drawing at our regular monthly meetings and used book sales in the Fall and Spring. In addition, our members contribute generously to our scholarship fund.
See our Timberline newsletters to learn more about our branch. If you are interested, we invite you to attend a monthly dinner meeting or to become a member. For information, contact our Membership Chair, Janis Johnson, at janiskjohnson@yahoo.com.
