The Tryon branch of the American Association of University Women (AAUW) will meet Sept. 26 at 1:30 p.m. at the Tryon Presbyterian Church on Harmon Field Road. All are welcome.
Attendees will hear this year’s Clemson scholarship young women share their summer experiences. Refreshments and a chance to meet members will follow the program.
AAUW has been in existence for more than 130 years. Through education, research and advocacy, both locally and nationally, AAUW helps women and children.
The Tryon branch of AAUW provides scholarships each summer to local high school girls to attend the Clemson University Summer Science and Academic Enrichment Program. In addition to this program, AAUW provides scholarships to local women to return to school. This is achieved through the Eileen White Scholarship Program.
