Mission Statement
Since 1900, the YWCA has opened doors of opportunity to women for growth, leadership and power to change. Today, over a century later, the YWCA is the largest and oldest women's membership organization in the State of Hawai‘i. The YWCA O‘ahu is a charter member of the YWCA U.S.A. and is one of more than 300 community associations nationwide that share the mission of empowering women and eliminating racism. Now, a new core of women are preparing for our future and are committed to reinventing the YWCA for the 21st century so it is relevant to all women as their lives and needs change. The YWCA offers a unique place - a place where women and girls can build relationships for life and have opportunities to move forward in life and give back to their community. Three centers at the YWCA, Fernhurst, Kokokahi and Laniākea, provide valuable programs and services that develop women and girls' social, economic, leadership and community building skills.
