Why
support the YWCA of CNJ?
In 2011, we brought on
a new Board of Directors, a new CEO, and several other key staff
members. Under the new leadership:

CARE: Our
enrollment in 2012 is 55 percent higher than 2011.
·TWIN:
We launched our Twin Academy Lunch and Learn Series in March 2012.
(See

·BANK
PARTNERSHIP: We
formed a new partnership with 12 branches of Bank of America (in
Middlesex, Union, and Somerset counties). Branch managers and their
staff are volunteering at the YWCA to clean, tutor, and serve as
speakers in our TWIN Academy.
·UPGRADES:
We expanded our hours, fixed our pool and sauna, purchased three rooms
of fitness equipment, and added fitness classes for children and
adults.We revamped
our website and increased our social media presence.
·STAND

hired several bi-lingual staff members including our Membership
Services Coordinator, Receptionist, and our Director of Education. Our
