The ASUVCW encourages you to express pride in our heritage by joining us in patriotic and charitable works. For women whose roots are deeply embedded in our nation’s past, what better way to honor our ancestors and their sacrifices for our country? The Auxiliary also offers opportunities to women interested in history who do not have Civil War ancestry to join us in remembering the Boys in Blue!
