Our moderator will be Bill O’Neil from WFMY Channel 12. With sponsorship and additional coverage from The Carolina Peacemaker. The Newspaper of Temple Emanuel members Afrique Kilimanjaro, Editor and Vickie Kilimanjaro, Founder & Associated Publisher. Since 1967, The Carolina Peacemaker has served as North Carolina’s leading news weekly with a national reputation. 

The AAUW Greensboro mission is to advances equity for women and girls through advocacy, education, philanthropy, and research. One way it is providing community engagement is thru their public policy work and multichannel communications to foster a growing community of members, supporters, students and organizations who advance their missions. Most recently AAUW partnered with UNCG for their annual “Intersection” STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) summer camp for 4th thru 9th graders. This camp clearly ends the notion that girls can’t do math, understand and create tech (APPS & websites) or become scientist.
