Educational Foundation
Mission: The AAUW Educational Foundation provides funds to advance education, research, and self-development for women and to foster equity and positive societal change.
The AAUW Educational Foundation--the world's largest source of funding exclusively for graduate women--supports aspiring scholars around the globe, teachers and activists in local communities, women at critical stages of their careers, and those pursuing professions where women are underrepresented. The AAUW Educational Foundation is a 501(c)(3) charity. Contributions are tax deductible for income tax purposes.
The Foundation funds:
Groundbreaking Research
Fellowships and Grants
Special Awards
Vital Community Action Projects
Symposia, Roundtables, and Forums
The Foundation's cornerstone has always been the remarkable energy and commitment of AAUW members, other individuals, corporations, and foundations that make contributions and help raise money for the Foundation's work.
