2024 YWCA EMPOWERING WOMEN LUNCHEON

Wednesday, September 25, 2024
12:00pm-1:30pm  |  Joseph A. Floreano Rochester Riverside Convention Center

Join us for one of Rochester’s best-attended, most talked-about inspirational events and help YWCA honor Game Changers who challenge the status quo and create positive change in the world.

Be a Game Changer and support YWCA’s mission to eliminate racism and empower women!

Do you want to be a Game Changer?

We are actively seeking volunteers to join our event planning committee. We meet via zoom on the second Thursday of each month from noon-1pm. If you would like additional information, please reach out to Yukali Okkotsu at yokkotsu@ywcarochester.org.

Be part of our vision.

We envision a world of opportunity. We commit ourselves to the work of racial justice. We will get up and continue to do the work until justice is rooted out, until institutions are transformed, until the world sees women, girls, and people of color the way we do.

Equal. Powerful. Unstoppable.

Building a better community through partnership.

Our community as at a tipping point in history where dismantling systemic racism can provide the type of world we ALL deserve. As the leading agency providing key social determinants of health through housing, young adult services, and racial equity, YWCA is uniquely positioned to help change the landscape of poverty and oppression for our underserved community. Together, we can help change the landscape of poverty and oppression for our underserved community. Together, we can meet our community needs head-on as eviction moratoriums are lifted, post-pandemic employment and school trends change, rates of violence in our city skyrocket, and the psychological ramifications of post-pandemic isolation continue rising to the surface.
