The YWCA would like to thank the Women’s Fund of Essex County for recently awarding us with a grant for $6,000 to be used towards our Women’s Health Services. If you would like to make a donation to help our many causes, click here.
The YWCA Northeastern Massachusetts [formerly YWCA of Greater Lawrence] was founded in 1892 to provide safe housing, job training and support to women moving from rural communities and overseas to work in area mills and shops. Today, a thriving social change agency, we serve more than 15,000 women, children and families from throughout Merrimack Valley, Essex County and Southern NH every year. We are an affiliate of the YWCA USA, the nation’s oldest and largest multicultural women’s organization working for social and economic change.

The YWCA is proud to announce our 38th Tribute to Women Honorees!
