The YWCA Durham is working to reestablishitself as this community’s
leading provider of service to vulnerable women andtheir children,
through support from a $21,000 grant from the Ontario Trillium Foundation (OTF).
The 7th Annual Starry Nights dinner, auction and dance on June 18th, 2010 was a great success. After tickets sales, and sponsorships, and balloon pulls, and auctions we raised over $42,000.
