Click on Members Only and everything you want to know about the Sacramento branch of AAUW, from bylaws to our operating budget to Board meeting minutes are at your fingertips. But you need to know the password. While we can’t publish the password here, you can easily find it in the back of your Membership Directory under “Social Media.”
Ordering AAUW Name Badges By Nancy McCabe
You probably have seen some of our members wearing AAUW badges with our branch inscribed. We ordered them about six years ago when we were using paper badges on a string around our necks. It reminded some of a work badge or a nametag for a cocker spaniel. Ten dollars looked like a bargain for a bit of self esteem. The badges are $11.50 and can be ordered at aauw.source4.com. My second line is ‘Sacramento Branch, Inc.’ We chose not to add our leadership position name as we often change jobs within our branch. The badges are pretty cool, so feel free to order yours, and shop the site for other logo stuff!
