The YWCA Santa Monica / Westside Transitional Housing and Education Program would not exist without the generosity and dedication of our donors and volunteers.  We receive no federal or state support and rely on individuals, companies, foundations and fundraising events to support our yearly operating budget.  Because of your support, we provide the individualization that is necessary for our residents to grow and reach their full potential.
