What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Educational scholarships are provided to women to assist in furthering their education. Awards are made according to who meets specific criteria established by donors for the individual scholarships. The applications are made available on December 1, of each calendar year and awards announced by June 1. Award amounts range from $1,000 - $12,000 depending on the specific scholarship.

The AOII Foundation has just begun a new strategic plan to help move our organization to a new level of success for those we serve. Over the past 40 years, we have grown from a part-time staff person with limited financial resources, to a full-time development staff managing more that $8 million in assets, with a broad range of opportunities for our donors to make a difference. We pride ourselves on being good stewards of the gifts we receive and strive to maximize the outcomes of our program funding.
