The AAUW [American Association of University Women] Glendale Branch began in January, 1923. We are proud of the many local women leaders who helped nurture and grow the branch. Glendale is especially proud of three women who stepped up to state leadership by leading the CA state AAUW:
1930-1932 Mrs. George Moyse
1942-1944 Florence N. Brady
1988-1990 Eileen Givens
We stand on the shoulders of these women and others who are not named here. Because of their commitment to the mission and vision in support of women and girls, voices are heard.
