Welcome to the LWV
of Saginaw County

The League of Women Voters, a nonpartisan political organization, has fought since 1920 to improve our systems of government and impact public policies through citizen education and advocacy. The League's enduring vitality and resonance comes from its unique decentralized structure.

The League of Women Voters is strictly nonpartisan; it neither supports nor opposes candidates for office at any level of government. At the same time, the League is wholeheartedly political and works to influence policy through advocacy. It is the original grassroots citizen network, directed by the consensus of its members nationwide.

All of our meetings are open to the public. We welcome you to membership in the Saginaw League of Women Voters if you are a voting age citizen. Come to our meetings, eMail our president [address at the bottom of this page], or click the Join the League button on the right side of this page.

Enjoy a fun, interactive program with Roberta Johnson as we focus on Women in History. She will ask for volunteers to participate in reader’s theater. The program will focus on the life of Mary Wollstonecraft. Roberta comments that her own history, and the barriers she overcame, makes her very interest in women fighting for equal opportunity. Roberta was a longtime LWV member in California, who recently moved to Michigan.

This free luncheon is a friend raising meeting. As a member of the League, you know that the LWV is an organization where smart, active leaders work to create lasting change in the community. For 91 years, the members our LWV have worked on civic improvement issues, published the Voter Guide and held candidate forums to educate voters, and advocated for good government

We hope that you will take this opportunity to introduce your friends to your fellow LWV members --and to the LWV, where hands on work to safeguard democracy leads to civic improvement.
