Today we pause to reflect on the life and legacy of Dr. King — his courage, his compassion, and his unwavering commitment to justice, equity, and service. In observance of MLK Day, YWCA of Queens is closed today as we honor his vision and recommit ourselves to building a more inclusive, empowered community. We will reopen tomorrow.
Do you love helping others stay active and have fun? 🎶✨ We’re looking for a part-time dance/exercise instructor to teach 1–2 weekly classes for our amazing older adults—Wednesday mornings preferred at our Union St. Flushing location. Come move, inspire, and energize our community!
🎉 Happy New Year from all of us at the YWCA of Queens! 🎉 Thank you to our supporters, partners, and community members who make our mission possible. Together, we look forward to another year of growth, impact, and positive change. Here’s to a bright and empowering year ahead!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from all of us at the YWCA of Queens! Wishing you peace, joy, and prosperity in the year ahead.
This holiday season was filled with many great events. Here are additional highlights from the Evergreen School's Year-End Celebration and Holiday Market hosted at DMOS Manor, featuring our students, educators, and staff. We are excited for even more gatherings in the year ahead.
The Evergreen choir and Korean dance team visited Onion Plaza Nursing Home for a special year-end performance. The seniors sang along with the choir, sharing smiles, laughter, and even tears as the music brought back cherished memories. The fan dance, performed to the joyful rhythm of traditional Korean music, along with a special appearance by a tenor soloist, filled the room with happiness. It was a meaningful and heartwarming way to close out the year on a cold winter day.
✨🎁 This holiday season, YWCA Queens was honored to support 524 children and their families through our annual Toy Giveaway. Seeing the joy and excitement on children’s faces reminded us why this work matters so much. 💖 We are deeply grateful to our dedicated staff, volunteers, and community partners whose hard work and compassion made this event possible. From preparing gifts to welcoming families, every effort helped create a warm and joyful experience for our community. Wishing everyone a joyful holiday season and a happy New Year! 🎄✨ #YWCAQueens #ToyGiveaway #FamilyJoy #CommunityCare #Volunteers Grateful HolidaySeason QueensNY
