Volunteer: YWCA Billings & COVID-19

YWCA Billings’ Salute Celebration and Awards event is postponed to June 12, 2020.

While we regret the inconvenience to you and your guests, everyone’s safety and health is the top priority. Please share this information with the people you invited to join you. We encourage everyone to enter June 12 on your calendars. Reminders and tickets will be issued closer to the event. We look forward to celebrating our honorees and the friend-and fund-raising that goes along with the festive occasion! Please contact events@ywcabillings.org or call 406-252-6303 with any questions, or if you need a list of your guests.

Event cancellation does not cancel the need for services and programs.

As the COVID-19 coronavirus impacts our community, YWCA is doing everything we can to avoid closing down services. Beginning Monday, March 16 we moved to a remote working environment. Our physical locations are closed to the public and minimally staffed, and our professionals are collaborating with each other and people who need assistance through other means—by phone, video, email, and through our online portal. Services will continue in this mode unless we are otherwise instructed by local public officials.

YWCA needs and appreciates your support more than ever!

We rely heavily on the funds raised at our events and through community donations to provide shelter, safety, housing and other services to women and children who are victims of violence and poverty. Thank you for standing with us and the people we serve in this trying time. We are here for them, and our community.

Stay strong and be well!
