- Give millions of women, young women and girls worldwide the power to change their lives...
- Make a significant difference in the world...
Donate to the World YWCA – an organisation which, for over 150 years, has been enhancing women’s, young women’s and girls’ well being, skills and leadership so that they may in turn improve the lives of others.
Each year the World YWCA reaches more than 25 million women, young women and girls through their work at grassroots level in 22,000 communities.
Each year, thanks to World YWCA programmes funded by generous donors, women, young women and girls can improve their living conditions, their health, their financial situation, understand their rights, become leaders and decision makers, and in turn help their famillies and contribute constructively to their communities.
Three Ways to Donate

- Support global advocacy programmes which bring core issues to the forefront of global arenas
2. Invest in the Future
- Donate to the Power to Change Fund – a permanent fund of the World YWCA that endows leadership development programmes for women, young women and girls worldwide
- The fund was created to ensure that funding would be available longterm, regardless of political climate, currency fluctuations, economic downturns or inconsistencies in annual support
3. The Elizabeth Palmer Fund
To mark Elizabeth Palmer’s 100th birthday and in honour of her incredible leadership of the movement, the World YWCA has established the Elizabeth Palmer Fund.
Ms. Palmer’s lifelong dedication to the YWCA mission was a significant factor in propelling the YWCA movement to speak out for justice and women’s rights.
As a named fund it will provide lifelong recognition of Ms Palmer within the World YWCA Endowment Fund, the interest of which is used to advance the purpose of the World YWCA to develop the leadership and collective power of women and girls around the world to achieve justice, peace, health, human dignity, freedom and a sustainable environment for all people.
