Women of Achievement AWARDS Celebration
Each year, YWCA Spokane celebrates high achieving women in the community. Established with the goal of increasing community awareness and appreciation for the diverse contributions of women leaders in Spokane, this luncheon has honored more than 255 women in the region.
A Community Coming Together To Impact Lasting Change
The Women of Achievement awards has evolved into YWCA Spokane’s largest fundraising event, sponsored by more than 50 companies and organizations each year, and is one of the area’s most prestigious award recognition events for women. Friends and supporters who believe in YWCA Spokane’s dedication to eliminating racism, empowering women, standing up for social justice, helping families, and strengthening communities come together to invest in the safety, hope, and healing of those served by YWCA’s critical programs.
Women of Achievement 2020
The Women of Achievement awards celebration was held virtually on Oct 1st.
This year, the Women of Achievement awards celebration is part of YWCA Spokane’s two month campaign called ONE MISSION. The campaign looks to raise $275,000 in critical funds in addition to celebrating those who live out YWCA’s ONE MISSION of eliminating racism and empowering women. Proceeds raised benefit services for domestic violence victims and their children, including emergency shelter, counseling, legal services, job readiness, child care, and Pre-K programs for low-income children. YWCA Spokane serve over 17,000 women, children, and families each year. Thank you for your support!
