Interested in Becoming a Legacy Circle Member?

By making a planned gift to AAUW National, you become a member of the AAUW Legacy Circle and affirm your commitment to equity. These gifts — or bequests — are donations that you designate in your will, estate or trust. There is no minimum gift requirement to join the Legacy Circle, and the benefits are many.
