World NGO Day

World NGO day, celebrated on 27th February, is a day that acknowledges the efforts of all NGO’s around the world that work hard to address social issues and to build a better world.  YWCA Kenya joined the world in commemorating the day, which is celebrated in more than 89 countries. We took it as an opportunity to reflect, and look back on our enduring achievements.

YWCA is a voluntary-membership based organization that advocates for gender equality whose mission is to develop and facilitate leadership and the collective power of women and girls to achieve social and economic empowerment.

Taking a look back at YWCA history  provided insight into the important work we do to better the society, country and the  whole world.
