April 13\u00a0COVID-19 Update<\/span><\/strong><\/h1>\n
\"\"<\/a>YWCA Cortland was mandated to close\u00a0its facility<\/a>\u00a0and all nonessential programs on March 17.<\/p>\n

This\u00a0facility and program\u00a0closure will be extended\u00a0through April 29, per\u00a0New York State’s PAUSE executive order<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As an essential service,\u00a0the Aid to Victims of Violence\u00a0program continues to provide critical services<\/a>.\u00a0The Crisis Hotline\u00a0(607-756-6363 or 1-800-336-9622) is\u00a0open 24\/7.<\/p>\n

The Child Care School-Age Program also\u00a0continues to operate but serves ONLY children of personnel deemed essential<\/a>\u00a0under the Cortland County State of Emergency.<\/p>\n

Thank you for your patience.<\/p>\n

As we continue to do our best to provide services to the much needed essential workers and those that may be at risk,\u00a0any financial support you may able to provide truly helps those that need us most right now<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>With our income-generating programs closed and expenses accruing,\u00a0we need your help to continue operating essential services<\/a>.<\/p>\n

YWCA Leadership has applied for loans through the CARES Act. However, this funding, if approved, might take months to receive and must be paid back with interest.<\/p>\n

Will you please make an immediate donation of $100 today?<\/a>\u00a0 No amount is too small. No amount is too great.<\/p>\n

Your charitable gift can qualify you for tax breaks due to the CARES Act, even if you don’t itemize.<\/a>\u00a0If you do itemize, the CARES Act removes the limit on deducting donations to nonprofits.<\/p>\n

Your gift today matters more than ever to provide emergency support to vulnerable women and children in our community.
