BPW meeting

EQUAL PAY DAY

4/25/06

BPW/WV State Convention

21-23 April

Blood screening

Oak Hill City Hall-4/8/06

Equal Pay Day is in April because April is symbolic of the time in the year through which a woman must work to earn the wages paid to a man in the previous year.

Women on average earn 77 cents to each dollar paid to their male counterparts.
