Past Presidents Parley

Posted on by mavideaadmin

Theme: “Believe in Those Who Came Before“

The Past Presidents Parley has many jobs; mentoring, encouraging to remember female veterans especially around Veterans Day and the Past Presidents Nurse’s Scholarship Fund, just to name a few.

Nurses Scholarship Fund

Donations are used to award $1,000 scholarships.

Parley Dues

Units remit $1 per past President in the Unit. Parley Dues also fund Scholarships. All donations are greatly appreciated.

Units must donate to the Nurses Scholarship fund and pay Parley dues to sponsor an applicant for a Nurses Scholarship. Units, please find the applications and rules in the Fall Packet and below.

Any High School senior can apply for a scholarship even if you are not a member. If you are not a member and want more information about scholarships, contact a Unit near you.

Areas of Emphasis:

  • Encourage future Auxiliary
  • Suggest active participation in our District and Division meetings.
  • Suggest Units give a gas allowance to encourage a member attend District or Division meetings. A report to the Unit on what was learned at the meeting would be required.
  • Units are encouraged to remember female veterans on Valentine’s
  • Edna Mae Unfer Scholarship is also available for applicants over 30 years of age. The applications will be in the fall mailing. Always remember to check all the rules carefully.
