- Give a Grad a Gift: National dues are waived for one year under the Give-A-Grad-A-Gift program. The form to give this national membership can be found online. If you would also like to gift a free one-year state membership to a graduate, please contact Iowa Membership VP Elaine Kresse. Dues vary by state and local branch, so if you wish to also join at the state and local level somewhere outside of Iowa, you would need to contact that state AAUW organization for more information.
