"It all began in 1964, When Lenore Feibel and Dorothy Forbes moved to Vero Beach, missed their former AAUW chapters and became involved. They organized a tea, which 65 women attended. At the first meeting, held at the Women's Club, 54 charter members joined the new branch. Now the third largest of 42 state branches, the Vero Beach group promotes a love for learning and is dedicated to the empowerment of women and girls. For going on six decades, local members of the AAUW have supported educational and philanthropic activity." (per https://verobeach-fl.aauw.net/about/history/) The Vero Beach Branch Series of the AAUW Collection houses administrative records, scrapbooks, and photographs produced by the Vero Beach Branch from 1964-2016, which were gifted to FGCU's Bradshaw Library Archives in February of 2019 by AAUW Representative Linda Barker.
