MEMO

To: All members of the African Women’s Commission(AWC) and the African National Women’s Organization (ANWO)

From: African Women’s Commission of the African People’s Socialist Party

Date: September 4, 2018

Subject: Introducing uniform policy

Starting immediately, members of the African Women’s Commission (AWC) and the African National Women’s Organization (ANWO) will be expected to wear uniforms in the performance of their duties related to AWC and ANWO.

Why uniforms?

Uniforms create a unified image for our members and organization.
Uniforms are easily identifiable
Uniforms convey a serious and organized group
Uniforms create a professional appearance and a set standard for members that the community expect to see.
Uniforms help create a sense of unity among members

When should we wear uniforms?

During outreach
During public actions
At organizational events

Why are the colors for AWC and ANWO different?

Women who are in AWC have chosen to join the African People’s Socialist Party and adhere to a different set of organizational principles than the members of ANWO. Being a member of AWC is a higher designation that we show with distinct colors and recognition.
