Outreach Program

“Happy Birthday to all members!” As Corresponding Secretary I send a digital birthday card from Jacquie Lawson to all members on the actual dates of their birthdays. During the two years I’ve done this, I have observed that about 1/3 of you never open the cards. If you are worried about getting spam, let me assure you that anything from jacquielawson.com is clean and safe. You can safely go back to your birthdate—even two years ago—and see what you’ve missed. Some of the cards are cute, some beautiful, all with lovely classical music or appropriate original music composed to match the card. Be assured; you will not import anything damaging to your computer. Enjoy!!

AAUW of TEXAS IS ZOOMING

by Pat Farnell

Conference Calls Are Now Zoom Meetings

I recently attended an AAUW Public Policy Zoom Meeting, which was quite interesting and informative.

These meetings are going to be held monthly and are open to the entire membership. I strongly recommend attending if you are interested in current issues and where AAUW stands on these issues. At this meeting we discussed:

  • Equal Pay and the equal pay calendar,
  • Advocacy and
  • Voter Access

Check the AAUW of Texas webpage (aauw-tx.aauw.net) for more details on these issues.

If you would like to attend the next zoom meeting, contact Poupette (Pat) Farnell at farnellpat@gmail.com or check the AAUW of Texas webpage.
