Welcome to the Alaska Women's Network (AWN). Alaska is a big state, but with a population of just over 600,000 residents, it is really a small community. AWN connects Alaskan women with each other, the rest of the country, and the world. We are an apolitical organization providing information to women of all backgrounds.

Want to get involved? Talk to us! If you support the mission of the Alaska Women's Network, sign up now. Members are eligible for participation in the AWN ListServ -- a tool for hundreds of women connected by email all over the Land of The Midnight Sun.

AWN Needs Your Help!

Thank you for visiting the Alaska Women's Network. 2008 marks the twelfth year anniversary of our organization and our website. Since 1996, AWN has served as the portal to Alaska, not just for the women of Alaska, but for tens of thousands of women from around the world. Our commitment has been to be the communications network for the women of Alaska and, after twelve years, we remain the only statewide information source by, for and about women.

Everyone is a volunteer at AWN. Contributions go toward keeping the organization and infrastructure running. Checks should be made out to Alaska Women's Network and mailed to:
Alaska Women’s Network,

We hope that you will support our efforts with a donation. The amount does not matter - it's the spirit with which you donate that will enable the Alaska Women's Network to continue. AWN is a 501(c)3 nonprofit and all donations are tax-deductible. Thank you for your support. We look forward to many more years of serving the women of Alaska.

Good women always think it is their fault when someone else is being offensive. Bad women never take the blame for anything.

The dogma of woman's complete historical subjection to men must be rated as one of the most fantastic myths ever created by the human mind.
Mary Ritter Beard (1876-1958)
