Welcome, These programs are focused in schools and communities, rather than in the Downtown Branch facility. The staff and volunteers of the YWCA of Metropolitan Detroit Downtown Branch would like to let you know that we are reaching out into the community to develop programs and services. We invite you to join us by becoming a member, participating in one of our great programs, or becoming a volunteer! We hope to see you soon! |

| DOUBLE your campership donation! | Skillman & The
Detroit Free Press Team Up! The Detroit Free Press Charities Inc. developed the Summer Dreams Program to help children who need financial aid attend camp. The Skillman Foundation joined with them by offering matching funds for the first $400,000 donated by individuals from 100 organizations and camps selected to be in the project. Up to $1,500 of an individuals donation will be matched by Skillman until the funds run out. |

City of Detroit Office of Cultural Affairs, Communities in Schools,
