We are excited to announce that six campers will attend Camp Franklin at Sonoma State, and three campers will attend virtual camp. They are all very excited to spend a week enjoying classes, activities, and speakers focused on STEM topics.
At the upcoming September Membership Kickoff, we will meet these campers and hear about their experiences. Their shared enthusiasm and excitement is always so fun to see, and will inspire us to continue working to raise funds for this important program.
We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to member Pamela Justin, who generously volunteered her time to write grants for Tech Trek. Thanks to her efforts and the incredible support from our community, we were able to send girls to Tech Trek Camp last month!
A special shout out to these amazing organizations for their generous grants:
Robert Half – $2,000
Costco – $500
Smart & Final – $300
Dine for a Cause
at
Virtue + Vice Restaurant

Encourage your friends, neighbors, and family to join you while you all enjoy a delicious meal. Proceeds from the evening will help fund the cost of 7th-grade girls selected to attend Tech Trek camp at Sonoma State.
Virtue+Vice supports local non-profits by generously donating 10% of the evening’s proceeds and 100% of the tips to AAUW San Ramon Tech Trek.
Please mention AAUW San Ramon when you call (925) 406-4867 or go online to make your reservation.

2024 Tech Trek Campers
Tech Trek 2024 was another huge success! Our Tech Trek students are a very inspiring group of girls. Their poise, enthusiasm, and accomplishments made the selection process very challenging. Our branch sent six girls to Residential Camp at Sonoma State and two girls to Virtual Camp. Many thanks to Co-Coordinators, Cindy Alpert and Kathi Senti, and their team of readers/interviewers for leading this very important effort for our branch. Their dedication and commitment contributed to another successful year!
