AAUW’s national President, Ruth Sweetser, personally delivered a letter thanking AAUW-Illinois’ “Jane Addams Day” committee for all the work done to promote this precident-setting state day. Furthermore, the AAUW website dedicated a page to our “Jane Addams Day” activities, noting:
“AAUW of Illinois hopes this program will serve as a model for other states to celebrate important local women who were also AAUW members. Programs like these help write women back into history while connecting to women’s equity issues of today.”
A huge THANK YOU to our sisters in DC & all around America!!!
