YWCA of Madison Charity Profile

The YWCA of Madison is a nonprofit membership organization founded in 1909 as a member of the national YWCA. We are committed to self-determined social change for women of all racial, ethnic and economic groups. The YWCA provides leadership in our community, nation and world in the struggle for peace, justice, freedom and dignity for all people. The YWCA Madison is committed to providing safe, affordable housing for low-income women, emergency shelter for homeless women and families, Racial Justice programming, education and training to ensure economic security for women, and enrichment programs for girls to grow healthy, strong, and confident.

Women are empowered and the equality of their lives greatly improve in partnership with the YWCA. As more women find personal strength, together we build a community where diversity and the elimination of discrimination are celebrated and honored.
