  Association Fellowships in Minnesota

In 2005-2006, over 200 women were awarded fellowships and grants. Katherine Himes is an American Fellow living in the Minneapolis area. She is attending the University of Minnesota in the field of biological studies. Her e-mail is: hime0005@umn.edu. I encourage you to contact her and invite her to attend any AAUW function that you are hosting. There is great benefit in your interaction with Fellows and Grantees and they are extremely appreciative of the financial support being given to them. They also enjoy sharing their research and educational program information with the AAUW community.

Many thanks to all the branches contributing to the Educational Foundation in the 2006 gifting year. With this generosity, we completed two $100,000 Fellowships, Nancy Rustad American and Barbara Link International, both of which were initiated in 1999. Significant contributions were also made to incomplete funds, the Eleanor Roosevelt Fund and general Foundation support.
