The American Association of University Women (AAUW) is the oldest and largest national organization for women. It was founded in Boston in 1881 so women college graduates could join together in advancing equity for women in education and employment

Today the mission of AAUW is Advancing Equity for Women and Girls through Advocacy, Education, Research, and Philanthropy.

Headquartered in Washington, D.C., and with a total of 100,000 members, AAUW has over 1000 branches nationwide. The Seattle branch was organized in 1904 and today consists of approximately 85 women from varied backgrounds who promote the Association’s goals. The Seattle branch welcomes new members.
