The National Women’s
History Museum in
Washington, DC
Do you want to honor a woman
you know-your grandmother,
mother, wife, friend, or colleague?
The National Woman's History
Museum has an interesting
project called,
The Chronicle of
American Women
, where you can
honor the legacy created by a
woman you know (they request a
fee), or you can read about other
women for free.   

Go to
www.nwhm.org and learn
what is happening in our nation’s
capital with women and history.
They are well sponsored by
numerous foundations and
corporations and a permanent
building in Washington, DC for
The National Woman’s History
Museum will be established.
