How You Can Help

Leave a Legacy

Back to Donate

At the YWCA, we know true equity comes from real opportunities. A bequest in your will uplifts women and children with housing, child care, employment and training programs and much more.

Help us create lasting change for women and children with a charitable gift in your will and estate plan.

 

Here you will find information on how you can include YWCA Metro Vancouver* in your estate plan while still supporting those you love.
