AWAR - Making Connections in Rome Italy
The American Women's Association of Rome is a club in Rome, Italy for American women and also English-speaking women of other nationalities. Founded in 1955, AWAR now has more than 300 members. Some of us are new to Italy while others have lived here all their lives. Ranging in ages from 20 to 107+ (with the majority in their forties) and coming from a variety of backgrounds, we're united by a common language, shared interests and friendship. Our volunteers keep the Association operating and the opportunities for involvement abound. In fact, many of us find that participating and volunteering in AWAR strengthens our connections to the community. An annually elected Executive Board manages AWAR according to its Constitution and Bylaws. The wife of the current U.S. Ambassador to the Italian Republic or the Ambassador herself traditionally serves as the Honorary President. Promoting friendship among its members and understanding between Italy and the United States, the American Women's Association of Rome is a non-political, non-sectarian and non-profit organization. AWAR is a member club of the Federation of American Women's Clubs Overseas www.fawco.org representing some 15,000 American women residing in 38 countries worldwide. Whether you're new to Rome or have been here for years, we encourage you to join the AWAR community. Please join.us@awar.org |

Are We Really Superwomen?
A panel discussion to commemorate International Women's Day, March 8, will be presented by AWAR under the auspices of the Fact Forum Chair. A distinguished international panel of guest speakers will share their personal, cultural and professional experiences as foreigners in Rome. Many of the guest speaker's experiences will be similar to yours as we juggle everyday living, careers, families, etc. in a country foreign to many of us or, simply, where we did not grow up but we now call home. Free entrance. Members please see the inside calender for details.

FAWCO: 2010 Friendship Quilt
"Tea Trade," the 2010 FAWCO Friendship Quilt, was inspired by the concept of global connections. With 70 blocks and 50 international contributors, it is a good example of the way women all over the world can work together for a common goal. Proceeds from the raffle will benefit the FAWCO Foundation's Education Awards and Development Grants. Thanks to all the quilters who sent blocks! Many of them will come to the FAWCO Conference in Boston this March to have their pictures taken next to their blocks.
Contributed by Roberta Zollner, Nimble Thimble Member and FAWCO Master Quilt Maker
