seeks and welcomes new members who hold an associate or equivalent, or
baccalaureate or higher degree from a qualified educational institution.
Undergraduates may join the branch as AAUW student affiliates. AAUW members
believe in the power of education to change women’s lives. We also recognize
that women’s education means not only attaining higher degrees. It also means
becoming financially literate, daring to take risks to grow and learn
throughout our lives, and helping others, both around us and far away from us,
to reach their potential. For more information on the Hingham Area Branch please
contact Patricia McKay 781-337-3375 . Prospective
members are invited to attend all programs.
