How You Can Support YWCA Cambridge

Collective efforts from our supporters ensure vital services remain free for participants. Our programs do not receive core funding, so we rely on your support to keep them running.

Continued donations from the community allow us to respond to the changing needs of participants, by investing dollars where our programming needs them most.

Every action, whether through donations, volunteering, or corporate giving, propels us toward a more inclusive future.

A future where

...women have access to emergency shelter in their community.

...youth know the signs of healthy relationships and understand the impacts of gender-based violence.

...young women, girls, and gender-diverse individuals face fewer barriers in male-dominated fields.

Ways to Give

Individual Giving

Every individual gift contributes to a collective outcome: helping ensure women, girls, and gender-diverse individuals can access supportive programs at no cost.

Give your time as a volunteer, make an in-kind gift of essential items, or make a monthly or annual donation to help us produce sustainable programs and services that strengthen our community.

Corporate Giving

Now more than ever, employees want their workplace to align with their values. Your organization can demonstrate its commitment to social good, gender equity, and diversity by supporting our work.

Engage your employees in efforts that matter most to them through corporate donations, event participation, or gift-matching programs.

Corporate Sponsorships

More than just a business partnership, sponsoring can help enhance your brand and turn your organization into a powerful force for change in our community.

We optimize corporate sponsorships to your goals and can include event integrations, employee engagement opportunities, or direct support of our transformative program for women, girls, and gender-diverse individuals.
