Community
For over 100 years, YWCA Greenwich has been a vibrant community center. While we could not gather in the same way during in fiscal year 2021, we continue to offer our members and the greater Greenwich community ways to connect, grow and learn through virtual presentations. In the section below you will a selection of offering from our Center for Learning. Our Zoom, hybrid or live events and panel discussions are free and open to the public. Our adult members were able to access virtual and in-person group exercise classes, personal training and adult lap swim and we continue to expand offerings as restrictions loosen.
In fiscal year 2021, we reintroduced our Annual Golf Tournament. The event, held at The Stanwich Club in June, supported our financial aid program, which provided over $150,000 in aid to families in fiscal year 2021.

YWCA Greenwich Annual Golf Tournament
On June 17, YWCA Greenwich hosted a day on the links at The Stanwich Club. Board members, supporters, and staff enjoyed a beautiful day outdoors. The event was the first in-person event in several months, and YWCA friends were grateful to be able to reconnect. The event supported financial aid, primarily for our children’s programming including preschool and afterschool. All children of domestic abuse victims served by YWCA Greenwich receive full financial aid to attend YWCA Greenwich programs.
