Hingham Area Branch of the American Association of University Women seeks and welcomes new members from the South Shore area 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.
