Mission
Our mission is to eliminate racism, empower women, and promote peace, justice, freedom and dignity for all.
Bottom Line for Portland
The YWCA of Greater Portland lives out its mission of eliminating racism and empowering women through our direct service programs as well as our Social Justice Program. Creating safety and stability for survivors, families and seniors as well as providing knowledge and space for our community to engage in social change. We use both our programs and trainings to transform our community to a more equitable place.
Incentives
The incentives for donating to the YWCA are pole dancing classes donated by Ecdysiast Studio. There will be a combination of in-person (IRL) classes and virtual classes to choose from based on your comfort level. The incentives and donation price points are as follows:
“The YWCA helped me and my family secure housing at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. Without their support, my two young daughters and I would still be living in our car! Their team is so amazing. Thank you so much and big hugs!” —Mom served through YWCA of Greater Portland's Domestic Violence Services
