Your Voice Matters!

Election Day is coming up this Tuesday, November 3! Your voice is an important part of shaping our communities, and voting is one way to make it heard.

At YWCA, we believe in promoting peace, justice, freedom, and dignity for all. Take a moment to make your plan to vote, learn about what’s on your ballot, and encourage your friends and family to participate, too!

Every voice matters. Make yours heard!

At YW it’s about making sure our community has access to the resources, care, and support they need to thrive.

We were grateful to welcome NEW Community Clinic (NEWCC) for medical appointments and vaccinations, while YW also offered fresh produce, free women’s underwear, and our Dollar Sale to help meet everyday needs.

From health and wellness to essential resources, we’re proud to create spaces where our community can connect, find support, and care for one another. Together, we’re building a healthier, stronger community!

Welcome Home.
Over the past two weeks, YWCA has welcomed back our Emeritus Board Members and Friends with our first Empower Hours. These women have helped shape this organization through their leadership, generosity, and their belief in what YWCA can make possible.

During our time together, we reconnected, toured the building, learned about the many well-being programs and pathways available through the Women's Empowerment Center, and YWCA's commitment to providing safe and supportive early childhood education. We also looked ahead to the possibilities taking shape at YWCA and the community helping bring them to life.

Thank you to these amazing women and all those who are part of YWCA past and future, celebrating women, affirming their worth, and supporting their wellbeing.

Celebrating Culture, Community & Remembrance

Last night, our Comunidades group came together to create a community ofrenda in honor of Día de Los Mu***os (Day of the Dead).

An ofrenda, meaning “offering” in Spanish, is a traditional altar created to honor and remember loved ones who have passed away. Often decorated with photos, candles, flowers, and meaningful items, an ofrenda celebrates the lives of those we hold dear and keeps their memories alive through love, stories, and traditions.

Through this beautiful tradition, our Comunidades members shared in a meaningful moment of connection, honoring loved ones while celebrating the culture and traditions that bring us together. At YWCA Greater Green Bay, we are grateful for opportunities like these that help us build community, share our stories, and learn from one another.

Sometimes, all it takes is a shared interest, a good conversation, or a welcoming space to feel connected. At YWCA Greater Green Bay, community grows when we come together, learn from one another, share experiences, and build meaningful friendships.

Looking for a group to gather with? We’d love to welcome you! Come as you are, meet new people, share a little laughter, and find your community at YW.

Because at YW, there’s always room for one more! 💛

Meet the Teacher: Mandi! 💛

At YWCA Greater Green Bay, early learning is more than childcare. It’s a caring community where children learn, grow, and explore—and families feel at home.

Mandi experiences that connection as both a teacher and a mom! With her son in our infant room, she gets to do what she loves while staying close to her little one. Outside of work, she enjoys spending time with friends and family, especially her son.

One moment that made YWCA feel especially meaningful? During a staff meeting, her coworkers stepped in to help care for her son. That simple act of kindness deepened her appreciation for the team and the community they create together.

From nurturing relationships to experiences like swimming during care hours, our early learning team helps children feel supported and build confidence every day.

We’re grateful for Mandi and the care she brings to our YWCA family! 💛

What a powerful week of learning, connection, and imagining a world without violence. 💜

As we wrap up YWCA Greater Green Bay’s Week Without Violence during Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we’re grateful for everyone who helped turn awareness into action.

A highlight was Wednesday evening’s screening of 3 Extraordinary Women, a moving celebration of women’s resilience, strength, and connection. More than 100 women gathered for the film and a heartfelt Q&A with Pearlette Ramos. Everyone's vulnerability and honesty made this one of those evenings that stays with you—truly inspiring.

Throughout the week, our Leaders Are Readers guests connected with children in our Early Learning Center, and our corridors filled with posters sharing pictures and words imagining a world without violence.

Purple was on full display at YW for Wear Purple Wednesdays! 💜 And generous gift card donations offered practical support for women who needed a little extra help—a meaningful way to turn compassion into action.

To our wonderful partners— Golden House, HER Alliance, Wise Women Gathering Place, and Weaving Ways, and 920212Safe—thank you for helping make this week so meaningful and for supporting women’s safety and well-being.

Together, we’re building a community where women and families feel safe, supported, and heard.
