Come to the September meeting to hear from the Tech Trek students who attended camp this summer, either at UCSB or UCSC. We sent four girls to UCSB: Josie Main, Margaux Yanega, River Morrison, and Zoe Healy. Five girls attended camp at UCSC: Daisy Banfield, Pacey Callaway, Abigail Durrant, Addie Waddell, and Olivia Ochoa.
We will also hear from some of the alumnae from our Alumnae group. The Alumnae group (TTAG) has been meeting over the past year with Peggy Papathakis as their AAUW coordinator. Prepare to be impressed!
We could not send as many girls to Tech Trek as we do without the support of many donors. Over the past few years, with the help of member recommendations, we have been able to reach out to local businesses and individuals who have generously sponsored a girl for camp. We would like your help in reaching out to people you know who might be interested and willing to sponsor a girl, or partially sponsor one.

You may know that SLO branch has a generous endowment established by Randy Murray to support Tech Trek. The annual distribution from the endowment provides the foundation for our fundraising, but not the complete amount. While we don’t know the exact amount of a scholarship for 2027, we do know that it was $1,200 per girl for this past year, and we expect it to increase.
Please contact Cindy or Susan if you have suggestions of people to contact and help us reach out to our community for support. Every donation helps, no matter the amount. To make a donation, please make out a check to AAUW - CA - SPF and write TT - SLO in the memo line and get it to Cindy or Susan. Thank you.
And there’s more to celebrate! Each year, the AAUW California Fund Committee honors individuals who have made outstanding contributions in support of the programs and goals of the AAUW Fund and/or AAUW California.
Please join us as we pay tribute to our two honorees for this year and celebrate their dedication and accomplishments.
