Dear Friends and Fellow Members,
Each year at this time, we salute the many in our community who make the work of the YWCA possible. We are very fortunate to get support from a wide range of organizations and individuals. Each gift is a vote of confidence in the organization and those that we serve.
We are very proud of the women and children who are part of YWCA and what they have accomplished with your help.
- A preschooler creates a city out of wooden blocks and builds his vocabulary as he interacts with classmates.
- A young woman takes a tour of college campuses, attends a money management workshop, learns about goal setting and gains the self confidence to confront the challenges that may lie ahead.
- A homeless woman has a room to call her own, gets help securing a job and learns how to overcome obstacles and get her life under control.
- A family gets their income taxes prepared free of charge and is provided with information about income tax credits, ensuring that they understand the process.
Each person who participates in one of our programs has made a choice to make their life better. They couldn’t do it without us and we couldn’t do it without you.
Over the last 150 years our strong and fearless sisters have sustained YWCA as an organization that provides women with a renewed spirit, new skills, and stronger lives.
Thank you for your continued generosity and for your partnership in strengthening our communities. Remember, we are
strong alone. fearless together.
Cordially,
Deborah Ullman
Chief Executive Officer
