Membership Matters

AAUW has been transforming women’s lives for more 140 years. And now that we’ve won the fight to give women equal access to education, we’re taking on one of the most defining issues of our time: gender equity. But we can’t do it alone.

Your AAUW membership will help close the gender pay gap by 2030, ensure schools and workplaces are free of discrimination and harassment, and create more opportunities for women to lead. It will also connect you to a powerful network of more than 170,000 women and men across the country who are as passionate as you are about building a fairer future — with a few other perks to boot. As a member, you will:

Make a Difference

By becoming a member, you’re not only joining a community committed to our cause. You’re also directly funding our work to:

  • Train millions of women to negotiate for higher salaries and benefits.
  • Support state and local fair-pay legislation to ban the use of salary history in hiring, a practice that puts women at a financial disadvantage.
  • Develop more women leaders through workshops and conferences.
  • Fund the research that is informing national conversations on the gender pay gap, women’s student-debt burden, and other key equity issues.
