The New York City Metropolitan Area Fund supports AAUW projects to advance gender equity in the 11 counties making up the New York metropolitan area.
Education powers equity. AAUW removes barriers so women and girls can access learning, unlock opportunity, and lead in their communities and beyond.
When it comes to 'innate' abilities, there's no evidence whatsoever to support the notion that boys are better at math and science. Yet these limiting stereotypes persist.
Harassment, assault and even violence stand in the way of girls' and women's access to an equal education. We need to do more to make it stop!
For more than a century, women have been fighting for equal pay. We've made progress, but stronger and more comprehensive laws are needed.
Through hands-on problem solving and encounters with women role models in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM), AAUW Tech Trek helps girls see their futures while having nonstop fun.
Right now, donations to the Public Policy Fund will be matched up to $250,000, making your dollars go even further in supporting AAUW’s work.
