Nonprofits of the Northwoods: Book Sale Aims to Empower Local Women

AAUW Wisconsin Facebook

The American Association of University Women advances equity for women and girls.

Sometimes the group does this by helping women advocate for fair pay.

Other times, it helps women further their education.

To achieve those ends, AAUW's Northwoods branch is hosting a book sale at Rhinelander High School from July 21-24.

Proceeds will go toward scholarships for women returning to college.

Listen to the full interview with AAUW's Northwoods Public Policy Officer Chris Ebert to learn more about how the organization supports local women.

WXPR’s Nonprofits of the Northwoods spotlights organizations in our area that are working to strengthen the community – whether that’s by lending a hand to someone in need, educating about the arts, or caring for the environment.

Erin Gottsacker worked at WXPR as a Morning Edition host and reporter from December 2020 to January 2023. During her time at the station, Erin reported on the issues that matter most in the Northwoods.
