The Impact of YWomen ↘

This year, support from the YWomen Leadership Circle will contribute to the YW’s Capital Campaign— a campaign funding a transformational renovation of the YWCA building at 1018 Jefferson Avenue in Toledo. The first phase of construction begins April of 2024, includes much required infrastructure repair, and doubles the number of rooms available to our region’s only 24-hour emergency domestic violence shelter.
