Fundraising - Join us for "Dine Out for A Step Up" at 240 Union Oct 4, 2007, 11am - 10pm
Lakewood AAUW's local philanthropy is "A Step Up: Education is the Gateway to Women's Financial Security." AAUW realizes that education is a big part of the equation for success. Stride's mission is to enable low-income individuals and families to become economically self-sufficient and independent of government programs. Since 1991, Stride has helped more than 500 families, and 70% of them are succeeding. For more information on Stride go to www.stride-co.org. Community
Involvement We promote and support public education. We also participate in local events, such as Habitat for Humanity builds, Race for the Cure, Second Wind Walk/Run, Channel 6 Auction, Channel 9 Health Fair, and the Lakewood Music Scholar Program with Chester, England. We achieve positive outcomes by combining our efforts with other community groups:
Activities
We also enjoy diversions -- one-time events that are entertaining, educational, and often "outside the box." Mission
