AAUW Eugene-Lane supports equity for women and girls in education and employment. We do that through activities like:
- sponsoring a middle school girls’ basketball team through KidsSports,
- helping to fund a scholarship so that a Lane Community College woman graduate can continue her education at UO (the Kappy Eaton Scholarship through the LCC Foundation),
- helping to fund a SPICE Camp scholarship so that a young woman can engage in science through hands-on experimentation,
- Presenting an annual UO Senior Woman’s Award that recognizes that woman’s accomplishments and plans as they relate to AAUW’s mission and values.
AAUW Eugene-Lane supports civics education and engagement. We do that through activities like supporting mock trial teams at Willamette and Creswell High Schools.
AAUW Eugene-Lane supports its members.
- We do that at our monthly branch meetings and at branch activities like our annual picnic and holiday brunch, and at periodic small group lunches and dinners.
- We send personal cards and notes when a branch member experiences a health challenge, bereavement, or other significant life event.
