💜 110+ PEOPLE. ONE SHARED PURPOSE. A COMMUNITY COMMITTED TO EQUITY! 💜

What an incredible evening at AAUW Morgan Hill’s 3rd Annual All-Member Meet-Up! Revisiting our mission, goals, our committees and interest groups, and most of all a terrific motivational kickoff to the 2026-27 year!

With over 110 members and guests in attendance, the room was buzzing with conversation, laughter, friendship, and a palpable sense of community!

But beyond the wonderful turnout was something even more meaningful: a roomful of people united by the belief that equity, education, and opportunity matter — and that together, we can make a difference.

From championing educational opportunities for women and girls to fostering leadership, advocating for equity, and strengthening our community, AAUW Morgan Hill is an organization that puts its values into action.

Organised by the Leadership Development Team, Membership and Hospitality Committees, and many more member volunteers who set up, contributed to potluck items, and helped take down too.

A heartfelt thank-you to everyone who attended, contributed, volunteered, and made this gathering such a memorable success!

…because when people come together with purpose, community becomes a powerful force for change.
