One famous women's organization is the League of Women Voters. It was founded right after women got the right to vote in the United States. Its purpose is to help American voters be better informed. The League of Women Voters is non-partisan; it provides accurate information about the positions of all the various candidates, as well as informing voters about local or national issues. The League also teaches about the voting process, so that new voters will understand how they cast their ballot.
Another women's organization is Big Sisters. This organization is non-partisan, non political, and open to participants from all races and religions. Big Sisters matches adult female volunteers with young girls who need mentors. In the past, these were girls who had no mother, but these days, the girls may come from a home where there are parents but the family is being affected by poverty or a bad neighborhood or problems in the schools. A Big Sister spends time with her "Little Sister," usually on a weekend day, taking her out to fun places and being a friend and a role model.

What is a code name?
Code names are names given to people (usually on a secret mission or to disguise themselves) so a group of people can talk to each other using their code names without giving away their names. Since the first or last name alone is vital information that is usually kept a secret in missions, code names are given to people to protect their identity from the enemy or opponent. (Code names are also given to the mission and objects to disguise the overall objective and mission itself, as not to give away its overall goal if an opponent or civilian were to find out about its existence).
