Summer Programmes
Summer programmes are a highlight of our many activities.
Every year the YWCA offers summer classes to the community. Over 500 women and youth participate each year. Last year, we had over 600 people attend our summer programme in classes such as, Math & English, Cooking, Cosmetology, Karate, Swimming and others, that encourage the mental, physical, and spiritual growth of the participants. Most classes meet Monday through Thursdays.
These classes are taught by volunteers from high schools, university students and volunteers from the community under the supervision of YWCA staff. Last year we had approximately 50 people volunteer their time and skills to helping others.
During the first session students take Math & English review. During the second session of the summer program students were given a more intensive reading course.
Cosmetology Course
The Cosmetology Course offers the participants an education in hair care and styling as well as nail care.
Cooking Course
In the Cooking Course, the participants are taught basic techniques as well as specific recipes. Each day the students learned a new recipe and prepared that dish.
