The YWCAs in Lynn, Lawrence and Haverhill are committed to honoring the generosity of donors by assuring that more than 85% of every dollar raised supports vital programs and services. We invite you to review our Financial Information including our Annual Audits and Annual Reports.
As a 501[c]3 non-profit organization, we depend on gifts from individuals, corporations and foundations to improve the lives of more than 15,000 women, children and families we serve each year in our Lawrence, Haverhill, Lynn and Southern NH sites; all gifts are tax deductible.
Outlined below are the ways that you can invest in our work to help break cycles: of poverty, of abuse or of neglect, right here in our community.

Gifts in Memory or in Honor of a Loved One
There are times when you want to say something special to a family member, friend or associate, and gives you a unique opportunity to commemorate a birthday, anniversary, wedding, holiday, retirement, graduation, or the loss of a loved one. Your thoughtfulness will be acknowledged immediately to the person or family you choose to honor. If you would like to make such a gift, please contact Susan McNeff at our Lawrence office.
