MoreP.E.O.’s Project for Continuing Education is a wonderful way to help women who would like to further their education reach for the stars! Finding a qualified woman is as easy as having conversations with the women in your life and asking about their goals and ambitions. An eligible woman can receive a grant amount up to $4000! Your chapter can also support this project by becoming a Brighter Tomorrow Chapter by donating a one-time designated gift of $500 to PCE.

Happy anniversary to our Kansas P.E.O. sisters!!
When sisters reach 50 years of membership, they are celebrated as Golden Girls in their local chapters and at a luncheon at the Convention of Kansas State Chapter.
