Thanks to our friends at First Interstate Bank, and a generous anonymous donor, your gift will be matched up to $10,000 through Giving Tuesday! Every dollar donated will have DOUBLE the impact!

YWCA Spokane is dedicated to eliminating racism, empowering women, standing up for social justice, helping families, strengthening communities, and promoting peace, justice, dignity, and freedom for all. We empower women, families, and communities through a combination of prevention, education, outreach, and response work.

What Your Gift Can Do

  • $50 eases the strain of transportation costs for a survivor with gas cards.
  • $100 provides a survivor’s child with a safe place to play, away from traumatic conversations, while their parent meets with an advocate.
  • $500 provides hours of help from a legal advocate who will help a survivor navigate the court system or file for a protection order.
  • $1,000 provides a new bed, blankets, linens, and household essentials for a survivor and her children.
  • $5,000 provides one year of housing, counseling, legal support, and other supportive services for a survivor.

Give from your IRA

Leave A Legacy

Bequests from a will or trust are the most common way to leave a gift to YWCA Spokane. Some people set aside a certain dollar amount. Others leave a percentage of the estate or assets left over after providing for their family. Others have made YWCA Spokane the beneficiary of 401K/IRA plans or insurance policies, or have established a Charitable Gift Annuity or a Charitable Remainder Trust to the Association. There are many ways for anyone to leave a transformational gift to YWCA Spokane, and we can help guide you through the process.
