2026 LeaderLuncheon Donations

Since 1977, YWCA O‘ahu has honored women in our community and inducted them into our distinguished Academy of Honorees.

For 49 years, our mission for LeaderLuncheon has been to highlight the women in our community who are making a profound impact, leading by example, and paving a way for other women. It is an opportunity to shine a light on the possibilities for a society where leadership is not limited by race, gender or economic status.

These women come from a diverse cross-section of professional fields and community work, and we want to honor them for their hard work and for the inspiration they are to all women everywhere.

Please join YWCA O‘ahu and consider giving to our 2026 LeaderLuncheon program. By making a donation, you are demonstrating your support of equity and opportunity for all in our society!
