We need people to develop a WAGE presence on every campus, to volunteer to help plan, organize and implement strategies to achieve this goal.
We also need your ideas. Have you thought about how WAGE could be more effective? What would you like WAGE to do? Let us know.
WAGE also needs money to structure and coordinate these activities. We could do much more on campuses; lobby in Sacramento; liaise with other women's and academic organizations to promote fair treatment of women in academia; and be a more effective in support of individual women.
We need at least $6,000 per year for routine clerical support ( mailing literature, updating mailing list, word processing, etc.). Other expenses include the WAGE newsletter at about $400 per issue and postage costs. Regular exposure of UC's flouting the law and the cost to taxpayers remains our most powerful weapon. We also need money to produce materials for our campus education program.
WAGE is a registered non-profit organization so your donation is tax deductible. If you are able to donate beyond your basic dues, your money would be put to good use.
