Named after YWCA’s signature color, the Persimmon Donor Circle is the leadership giving society of YWCA Glendale and Pasadena. They are a collective of individuals dedicated to advancing our organization’s mission of eliminating racism and empowering women. The unrestricted funds raised through the Persimmon Donor Circle allow YWCA Glendale and Pasadena to be nimble and responsive to the needs of our communities. Circle donors will be invited to private events to learn more about how we are stewarding their funds and innovating within our core programs: ending gender-based violence, empowering girls, and advancing racial justice.
