Thank you for your interest in submitting a nomination for the 2009 Women of Influence Awards.

The Women of Influence Awards honor women in the greater Dayton community who have made a positive impact on the lives of people in the Miami Valley through their community service.

Nominees do not have to be active in the YWCA, but should exemplify community spirit, leadership, volunteerism and making a difference in the lives of others. 

A luncheon celebration will be held on March 19, 2009 at the Dayton Convention Center to honor the award winners. For more information on tickets and sponsorships, please call or e-mail Angie Hoschouer at 937-461-5550 ext. 179 or

Gift of Hope
Honor the important people in your life this holiday season…
…Give the Gift of Hope!

Are you looking for a unique holiday gift for your family or office exchange, book or card club get-together, or for teachers, caregivers and service providers? Is your business interested in showing appreciation to its customers with something besides another box of candy or a calendar?

How about a gift that truly keeps on giving? Support the YWCA Dayton’s Gift of Hope Campaign! The Gift of Hope allows you to honor your friends, families or colleagues by making a donation to the YWCA Dayton in their names.

Your gift will play a vital role in helping the YWCA Dayton continue its mission of eliminating racism and empowering women. We have a 138-year legacy of addressing critical social needs in our Dayton community, including: domestic violence, racial justice, homelessness, childcare, affordable housing, plus self-sufficiency and personal development for women and teens.

Your investment will provide hope for a better tomorrow to the women and children who turn to the YWCA during their most desperate times looking for shelter, comfort, guidance and the opportunity to rebuild their lives.

The YWCA will provide you with special donation envelopes, if requested, and will send honorees a notice of your gift if received before December 20, 2008. Checks and credit cards are accepted.

For more information about the Gift of Hope Campaign, contact the YWCA Dayton Development Office at 937-461-5550, x118.
