If you have ever—or never—before had the thought, I’d really like to volunteer with the League of Women Voters (Diablo Valley) this year . . . This is the time, 2020 is THE YEAR you are so needed!
Thanks to a great team of petition circulators and speakers, in 2019 we returned 60+ petitions with more than 500 signatures. I set our League goal at 1,000 signatures. We have almost 3 more months and I think we can reach this number.
100 years later, women still power the vote through their management of campaigns for candidates and ballot measures, and by successfully campaigning to become elected officials themselves. In our county, we can be proud of the number of women in leadership roles.
Joanne was an inspiring leader and we are grateful for her dedicated service to the League and California and she will be dearly missed. You can read more about Joanne's memorial.
We encourage you to make donations in her honor and we will send gift acknowledgement cards to her family.
