WE HAVE A STRONG SET OF CANDIDATES READY TO LEAD AAUW CALIFORNIA AAUW.
CA has eleven (11) board members. Six are continuing for the second year of their terms. That leaves five board positions to be filled. Co-presidents are allowed per our policies, but co-directors are not allowed.
Since we can only add five board members and one is reserved for CFO, that leaves four slots to be filled. Two will now be taken by the co-presidents-elect, who are running unopposed, and two will come from the four candidates running for director.
For President-Elect: Three-year term 2025-2028 (one year as President-Elect and two years as President). We have two candidates, Sigrid Moranz and Sharyn Siebert, who are sharing this position and therefore running unopposed. Each person will have one vote on the board.
For Chief Financial Officer (CFO): Two-year term 2025-2027. We still need someone to step forward! The CFO has one vote.
For Directors: Two-year term 2025-2027; Nominees are Gail Swain, Bev Van Citters, Melissa Maceyko, and Amy Hom. Members can vote for two. Each has one vote on the board.
All the candidates are experienced AAUW leaders and represent geographical regions across California. Click HERE to view the 2025 Candidates’ statements.
We are also voting on an AAUW California dues increase and the proposed 2025-2027 Public Policy Priorities. These are critical to our advocacy efforts.
Voting Period: April 26, 2025 – May 16, 2025
