How Virginia Ranks in Fund Giving

for a rundown on the new breakdown and how to contribute (if you don’t do it through your branch, which is what we recommend!)
Branch Treasurers: In order to be tax-deductible for 2013, contributions to the Foundation must be received by December 31; to be safe, it is best to send contributions by December 15. Also, recognition of branch contributions is based on the calendar year, so only those contributions postmarked by December 31 will be credited to the branch for this year.
Remember to use the Contribution Report Form
(available at the AAUW website at http://www.aauw.org/resource/contribution-report-form-crf/).
Send the form with the contributions from your branch to the AAUW Development office (address on the form); the form permits you to specify to which funds contributions are to be given, and if you do not use this form, your branch may not get credit for contributions.
If you wish to make a donation and are not a member of an AAUW of Virginia Branch, you may do so online using a credit card.
Branch members may also use this form but should remember to specify their branch so the Branch will be credited.
Virginia-Related EF Fellowships and Grants
Through institute programs, women and girls acquire the skills they need to succeed and assume leadership roles in their academic, professional, and personal lives. AAUW’s institute now directs the National Conference for College Women Student Leaders, an event that grows in depth and popularity each year. Beyond this college-aged program, the institute will develop a breadth of programs addressing women in all stages of life.
