Founded in 1953, The Bath Branch is a community of people who share common interests, act on vital issues, and promote educational opportunities for women and girls. Its members have consistently been involved in community and educational activities.
Each year the Bath Branch raises money to award scholarships to local women for their college education. We also contribute to the AAUW Legal Advocacy Fund and the National AAUW Educational Foundation which is the largest source of non-governmental funding for women graduate students.
The Bath Branch has been recognized for its achievements in promoting the goals of AAUW, especially in the area of community-based programming. We are a dynamic group of women, proud of our past accomplishments and committed to continued promotion of equal opportunities for women and girls. We invite you to join us.
