The YWCA Mankato will be attending the Greater Mankato Diversity Council's Juneteenth Celebration and invites you to join us as we commemorate this important day of freedom, reflection, and community.

Juneteenth reminds us of both how far we've come and the work that remains to create a more equitable and just future. At YWCA Mankato, we are committed to advancing equity, inclusion, and opportunity every day, and we're proud to stand alongside our community in that work.

We hope to see you there!

SAVE THE DATE!

On Friday June 19th, 2026 we will be celebrating 161 years of African American freedom in the United States. This is our 9th annual GMDC Celebrate Juneteenth event and we are beyond excited for another amazing day of music, culture, history, food, supporting our beautiful community, and so much more. You don't want to miss this!

As always, our work wouldn't be possible without the support and generosity of our valued community members and businesses.

Thank you to the Greater Mankato Area United Way for coordinating some amazing volunteers from the community to come help prep our garden for the season!

If anyone is looking for additional ways to help out, we are on a search for some outdoor chairs to go with our new table! This will help allow us to expand our programming outdoors, as well as take mental wellness breaks outside.
