Help YWCA Muskoka raise $100,000 by December 31.
We are facing our most ambitious goal yet: raising $100,000 before the end of 2026 to provide immediate and long-term stability for local girls and women.
Your gift goes twice as far this November. Thanks to the generosity of
Mary Ann Debes and the Harry Debes Family Foundation,
every donation will be matched dollar for dollar, up to a total of $15,000 during the month of November!
The need is growing.
So is our commitment.
Rising costs and the housing crisis are putting enormous pressure on Muskoka families, especially single-parent families. Meanwhile, harmful online movements targeting women are growing, and the need for support is increasing.
YWCA Muskoka believes in the power of prevention. We work alongside young people, women experiencing violence and families facing poverty, helping people build safer, more stable futures before crisis takes hold.
Your gift makes this work possible.
- Preventing violence: School-based groups, workshops and education that help young people build healthier relationships before crisis takes hold.
- Building safety and stability: Support for women experiencing violence and families working to break the cycle of poverty.
- Creating lasting change: Nearly 30 years of community-rooted experience, responding to Muskoka's evolving needs.
YWCA Muskoka is here for community — to stand up for girls, women, and gender‑diverse people. Help us build what comes next; let’s roll up our sleeves, because there’s still much to be done.
