Dear Altrusa friends: This message comes to you from a very long-time member of Altrusa-50 years, in fact! I became a member when I moved to Tucson, and some dear family and friends invited me to a meeting! In those days, Altrusa was for women only, but now that has all changed, and we welcome men and all genders! I loved the fact that Altrusa was worldwide, that it eventually became focused on literacy, and that its conventions every other year allowed me to travel to all parts of the world! It is truly a builder of women and men and leaders of all people!
Patricia Young, Past Governor
