Congratulations Queen!!
On Monday, YWCA South Hampton Roads had the honor of again being recognized at an inspiring luncheon hosted by community partners, Norfolk Southern and Hampton Roads Community Foundation, whose values reflect compassion, collaboration, and a commitment to building a stronger Hampton Roads.
As we sat among organizations whose work touches every corner of this region—housing, education, the arts, youth development, business support, and more—we were reminded that the heartbeat of Hampton Roads is not found in any one mission. It is found in all of us, collectively, showing up for the people who call this community home.
This we know, when one organization succeeds, our whole community rises. When one family thrives, we all move forward.
We appreciate the generosity and salute every honoree:
To every nonprofit team member who shows up early and stays late.
To every business that chooses generosity over convenience.
To every civic leader, educator, clinician, advocate, and volunteer.
To every person who uses their gifts to impact lives—
Thank you.
Because of you, survivors of domestic violence receive safety.
Because of you, children receive hope.
Because of you, racial equity is not just a conversation—it becomes action.
Together, we make Hampton Roads a safer, stronger, more vibrant place to live, work, and thrive.
YWCA South Hampton Roads — Eliminating racism. Empowering women. Strengthening our community, together!
