Foundation

AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF UNIVERSITY WOMEN
La Mesa–El Cajon CA Foundation

Our Foundation began in the late 1990s and was established as a 501(c)(3) corporation in 2005 to provide tax-deductible funding for our programs. The San Diego Foundation manages a significant portion of our funds and disburses annual dividends to the AAUW LM-EC CA Foundation for our scholarship programs. Since 2012, we have received over $55,000 in dividends.

Together with the branch, we provide scholarships for young women attending our local colleges and fund a Tech Trek science camp for middle school girls to enhance their learning opportunities in STEM. Donations are welcome in any amount at any time. Life Membership is given to those who donate $1,000 or more. Members may also leave a bequest in their will or trust.

For further information, please contact Shirley Stowers at shirleystowers@me.com or call/message 619.994.0712.

Please make checks payable to AAUW LMEC CA Foundation.

The Foundation is proud of what it has accomplished since its inception. We invite others to become members.
