Each year, the YWL supports various local charitable organizations through funding and service. The League raises money primarily through fundraising events. We also accept donations from members, alumni, corporations and anyone interested in contributing to local charitable giving. Before receiving a grant, each charity goes through a lengthy vetting process by our Charity Research Committee. This process includes scrutinizing applications and financial statements, making site visits, conducting interviews, and discussing the merits of each proposal in detail. In this way our donors can be assured that a rigorous process has been conducted for the funds that have been contributed to our campaigns. Thank you for for your generosity.
