About AAUW
AAUW's founders believed in education as the key to achieving equity for women of all ages, races, creeds and nationalities.
The Education Foundation provides funds to advance education, research and self-development for women and to foster equity and positive societal change. The Educational Foundation is one of the largest sources of funding for graduate women. Both in the US and globally, EF has a long history of advancing educational and professional opportunities for women. The selection process is competitive. Specific information on the awards can be found at www.aauw.org/fga/awards.
Groundbreaking research is conducted and published by the Educational Foundation as well. An Example is Drawing the Line: Sexual Harassment on Campus.
Since 1981 the AAUW Legal Advocacy Fund has contributed more than $1 million to 78 cases involving women fighting sex discrimination in higher education. LAF offers plaintiffs financial and technical assistance for their cases. LAF does not engage in litigation.
The College Women's Club of Montclair has funded four named units in honour of dedicated branch members. These units have funded advanced degrees for at least 12 young women.
