HELPING LA FIRE VICTIMS
The AAUW branches [Pasadena, Alhambra-SanGabriel, San Fernando, and Glendale] affected by the LA fires [LAF] are actively determining which members have lost homes, had damage, been displaced, etc. By using the model set up by the Paradise Branch when the Paradise Fire displaced members, these branches are working with AAUW CA President Charmen Goehring, AAUW California Office Manager Julika Barrett, and AAUW Paradise Branch member and former state director Carol Holzgrafe to set up a concerted effort to assist affected branch members.
