Today is GiveBIG 💜
Y-WE creates spaces where young people can find their voice, build meaningful connections, and grow into leaders and changemakers.

This year, we are raising $10,000 to help sustain free youth programming, including transportation support, meals, mental health resources, and community-centered experiences.

We invite you to support this work today: https://www.wagives.org/organization/youngwomenempowered?mc_cid=2cbdd8d857&mc_eid=UNIQID

Many employers offer matching gift programs, which can double the impact of your contribution.

It’s never too early to start thinking about a career 💫
Career Day: He(art) Work is an opportunity for young people to explore what meaningful, values-aligned work can look like, on their own terms.

Swipe through to see everything youth will get at Career Day, from practical support like resumes and interview prep to conversations with creatives and professionals, free headshots, and more.

If you have a young person in your life (ages 13–19), please share this with them so they can make the most out of the day.

✨ Meet your Nourish facilitator ✨
We’re starting tomorrow, and you can still sign up this week and next.

Y-WE Nourish: Body, Soul & Community is a youth-centered space to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and be in community this winter. Through reflection, creativity, and shared presence, youth are invited to gently tend to their bodies, stories, and inner worlds.

This season is facilitated by Angelique (she/her), a heart-centered Spiritual Director whose work lives at the intersection of spirituality, justice, and embodiment. She honors the wisdom carried by women and gender-expansive people of color and is devoted to nurturing spaces where healing, connection, and collective care can grow.

🌱 Thursdays, 4:30–7:30 PM
🗓 January 22 – March 21
📍 Young Women Empowered
5623 Rainier Ave S, Seattle

Sign up and come through 💛 See you soon!
