AAUW Virginia Beach Branch The Virginia Beach Branch was founded in 1958. Today we have 55 members from a variety of backgrounds, colleges, professions, and interests.

Throughout the years, we have become known for contributing to the community as well as for advocating education and equity for women and girls. The leadership skills, learned through AAUW participation, have enabled many of our branch members to move to influential policy-making positions in local government, education, and business as well as to elected and appointed offices in Virginia AAUW. We continue to focus on accomplishing our written goals. They include increasing the number and participation of members, raising sufficient monies for AAUW Funds which include: Education Fellowships and the Legal Advocacy Funds (LAF). As well as continuing and expanding community action projects, increasing involvement with public policy, and strengthening our leadership development program and increasing our local visibility.

Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander women can lose more than $1 million in earnings to the pay gap over their careers compared to white, non-Hispanic men. Pay inequity varies across NHPI communities, with barriers such as caregiving responsibilities and occupational segregation often widening the gap.

Systemic change is essential. While we work to advance change, AAUW’s free salary negotiation and financial literacy programs can help you advocate for fair pay and strengthen your long-term economic security.

On this NHPI Women’s Equal Pay Day, we urge you to get empowered. Take action: https://www.aauw.org/resources/programs/womens-economic-empowerment-initiative/

AAUW mourns the passing of Gloria Steinem, a pioneering journalist, activist, and champion for women’s equality.
A leader in the movement for gender equity, Steinem helped advance many of the issues that remain central to AAUW’s mission today. In 2003, AAUW honored her with the AAUW Achievement Award, recognizing her lasting impact and extraordinary contributions to advancing women and girls.
We honor her remarkable legacy and remain committed to carrying the work for equality forward.
