Aloha from our CEO<br />
Our Mission:<br />
Eliminating Racism.<br />
Empowering Women.<br />
Founded in 1900, the<br />
<strong>YWCA</strong> of O‘ahu is the<br />
oldest and largest<br />
women’s organization<br />
in Hawai‘i. The <strong>YWCA</strong><br />
of O‘ahu cultivates<br />
opportunities for women’s<br />
and girl’s growth and<br />
leadership. Over 2 million<br />
people participate each<br />
year in <strong>YWCA</strong> programs at<br />
more than 1,300 locations<br />
across the United States.<br />
Show us your W!<br />
There is power in the W,<br />

power in the <strong>YWCA</strong>.<br />
Flex your muscle and show<br />
your W to help us continue<br />
our work—empowering<br />
women and eliminating<br />
racism.<br />
Be a part of our semiannual<br />
giving campaign.<br />
Include the <strong>YWCA</strong> of O‘ahu<br />
in your year-end giving.<br />
Donations of any amount<br />
are much appreciated.<br />
December, <strong>2012</strong><br />
Mahalo for being part of the <strong>YWCA</strong> of O‘ahu,<br />
the oldest and largest women’s organization in<br />
Hawai‘i. Because of your active involvement and<br />
support we are able to continue empowering<br />
women and eliminating racism.<br />
In <strong>2011</strong>, our Board of Directors and team members<br />
worked diligently to stabilize the organization by<br />
retiring the debt and cutting costs.<br />
In <strong>2012</strong>, it was our challenge to demonstrate<br />
our relevance to the community. We did so by<br />
expanding our legacy programs and starting new initiatives to meet<br />
enduring and emerging community needs. We established strategic<br />
partnerships for greater impact.<br />
And we are investing in our future. Our facilities have experienced muchneeded<br />
renovation and have had new life breathed into them. Likewise,<br />
we are investing in our team, repositioning some and providing training<br />
and development opportunities for all. In October eleven of us attended a<br />
capacity building conference hosted by our regional leadership.<br />
This month we not only close out our fiscal year, we also conduct staff<br />
and board retreats to set direction and develop strategies for 2013. While<br />
I can’t say for certain what the new year will bring, what I do know is that<br />
we’ve set a firm foundation and our future is bright.<br />
We look forward to, along with your help, continuing the 112-year legacy<br />
of the <strong>YWCA</strong> of Oahu. Thank you for being part of our history.<br />
With warmest regards,<br />

Transitional Housing<br />
Impact of the <strong>YWCA</strong><br />
“Fernhurst was there when I<br />
needed a place to stay and<br />
I’ve always appreciated<br />
that. I have many fond<br />
memories—I’m still friends<br />
with the woman who was<br />
my roommate in 1979! I<br />
will always be grateful to<br />
the <strong>YWCA</strong> and Fernhurst<br />
Residence. You were there<br />
when I needed assistance.”<br />
-Jeanne M.,<br />
former Fernhurst Resident<br />
Fernhurst Residence<br />
Located in Makiki, Fernhurst<br />
Residence has been a<br />
residential community<br />
for women and children<br />
since 1912. It is the oldest<br />
all-women’s transitional<br />
residence on O‘ahu.<br />
Each year, Fernhurst<br />
provides more than 11,000<br />
bed-nights for women and<br />
children.<br />
From students to snowbirds,<br />
women of all walks of life<br />
have enjoyed the amenities<br />
of the Fernhurst community.<br />
A 900-square-foot garden at Fernhurst<br />
is the result of a community partnership<br />
started in <strong>2011</strong>.<br />
The yield from the garden contributes<br />
to meals served at Fernhurst, where<br />
women and their children are<br />
provided breakfast and dinner.<br />
Residents are assigned plots and<br />
tend to the garden, which is growing<br />
lettuce, mixed greens, herbs, green<br />
peppers, chili peppers, cucumbers,<br />
eggplant and tomatoes.<br />
“The community garden represents the<br />
peaceful sanctuary we strive to create<br />
for the women at Fernhurst,” said<br />
Rhonda Jones, supervisor of Fernhurst.<br />
“From a practical standpoint, we are<br />
helping our residents be healthy and<br />
contribute to the sustainability of the<br />
organization.”<br />

Homebase at<br />
Fernhurst Residence<br />
Homebase at Fernhurst is<br />
a program that provides<br />
women with affordable<br />
housing—and the chance<br />
to transform the course of<br />
their futures.<br />
This <strong>YWCA</strong> program<br />
offers eligible women<br />
financial support and the<br />
opportunity to prepare for a<br />
transition from challenging<br />
life circumstances to<br />
permanent housing.<br />
Through the Homebase program,<br />
women receive mentoring and<br />
job readiness coaching. They have<br />
access to training and an onsite<br />
computer lab.<br />
These resources, along with a lowcost<br />
living arrangement and daily<br />
meals, enable each woman to<br />
achieve her goals.<br />
Homebase participants contribute to<br />
the community by volunteering two<br />
hours of their time each week.<br />

Impact of the <strong>YWCA</strong><br />
“What<br />
happened<br />
to me can<br />
happen to<br />
anyone. I<br />
lost a lot this<br />
year—my<br />
job, my<br />
apartment,<br />
my car and<br />
my grandfather. I never<br />
thought I would be in this<br />
situation. Homebase gave<br />
me a place to live, an<br />
opportunity to look for a job<br />
and a source of support. I feel<br />
like I am going uphill—slowly<br />
but surely.<br />
I even got to attend the<br />
<strong>YWCA</strong> regional conference<br />
this fall in Kaua‘i. Learning<br />
what other people do to help<br />
others inspired me. I love our<br />
mission and hope to do more<br />
work to eliminate racism. It<br />
just feels good to be part of<br />
the YW family and I feel lucky<br />
when I come here to work.”<br />

Impact of the <strong>YWCA</strong><br />
“We have<br />
different<br />
needs [from<br />
men]. It will<br />
be nice to<br />
be in the<br />
company<br />
of other<br />
women who understand<br />
exactly what you are going<br />
through. I will do whatever<br />
it takes to see my daughter<br />
again.”<br />
— Kariann Lubin, formerly<br />
homeless<br />
“Our women<br />
veterans<br />
are an<br />
underserved<br />
population,<br />
partly due to<br />
not having<br />
a facility<br />
and services<br />
specifically<br />
targeted to reach them.<br />
But the reality is that there<br />
is a increasing number of<br />
homeless veterans that<br />
are women and this much<br />
needed project will provide<br />
us an opportunity to address<br />
the needs of the women<br />
who served our country so<br />
unselfishly.”<br />
Fernhurst Residence<br />
for Female Veterans<br />
(new in <strong>2012</strong>)<br />
As our soldiers return from<br />
war, re-entry into civilian<br />
life is often difficult. Post<br />
traumatic stress, depression,<br />
substance abuse and other<br />
barriers may add to the<br />
challenges.<br />
Exacerbating their situation,<br />
many female soldiers return<br />
home having been sexually<br />
assaulted while serving our<br />
country. The combination<br />
of these factors can result<br />
in homelessness for female<br />
veterans.<br />
In partnership with U.S.VETS,<br />
the <strong>YWCA</strong> of O‘ahu is able<br />
to guarantee housing for<br />
homeless female veterans<br />
and their children at<br />
Fernhurst Residence.<br />
U.S.VETS conducts the outreach and<br />
case management; the <strong>YWCA</strong> of O‘ahu<br />
provides the housing and economic<br />
advancement training. It is a perfect<br />
partnership that was launched in<br />
October <strong>2012</strong>.<br />

oahu.ywca.org/womenveterans<br />
Approximately 1,100 veterans experienced<br />
homelessness in the state of Hawai‘i last year.<br />
Roughly 5% of them are women, according to<br />
the Hawai‘i office of the United States Veterans<br />
Initiative (U.S.VETS)<br />

Dress for Success®<br />
Honolulu<br />
Dress for Success® Honolulu is a<br />
signature program that promotes<br />
the economic independence<br />
of women in their various<br />
life transitions by providing<br />
professional attire, a network<br />
of support and the careerdevelopment<br />
tools to help them<br />
thrive in work and in life.<br />
Dress for Success® Honolulu<br />
is more than monthly benefit<br />
sales of gently used women’s<br />
businesswear -- we empower<br />
women, one by one, from the<br />
inside out.<br />
The program, which celebrates<br />
its 10th anniversary in <strong>2012</strong>,<br />
serves clients through referrals<br />
from partner organizations –<br />
government agencies and<br />
non-profits – that specialize in<br />
job training programs or serve<br />
women who are homeless,<br />
domestic violence survivors, or<br />
those who are reentering the<br />
community from treatment or<br />
incarceration.<br />
Dress for Success®<br />
is “Going Places”!<br />
In response to the increasing<br />
demand from the community,<br />
new and expanded program<br />
space will open in 2013. Under<br />
the expanded “Going Places<br />
Network” module, several<br />
additional program offerings<br />
will be available to our clients,<br />
representing an expansion of our<br />
local program to mirror the Dress<br />
for Success® national offerings.<br />

a place like<br />
this existed here. It is like<br />

feeling now because I<br />
am so overwhelmed—just<br />
thankful.”<br />

(new in <strong>2012</strong>)<br />
Financial dependence is<br />
one of the main reasons<br />
that survivors of domestic<br />
violence return to or remain<br />
in abusive relationships. The<br />
<strong>YWCA</strong> of O‘ahu added<br />
a new component to its<br />
economic advancement<br />
programs in June <strong>2012</strong> to<br />
address this issue.<br />
<strong>2012</strong> was a pilot year for<br />
Wāhine Moving Forward. The<br />
program trained 40 potential<br />
volunteers on how to mentor<br />
domestic violence survivors.<br />
21 of the 40 participants<br />
decided to become<br />
financial mentors for the<br />
program. Each completed<br />
the <strong>YWCA</strong> volunteer<br />
application process,<br />
including an additional<br />
financial training session, background<br />
checks and individual interviews.<br />
Three financial series sessions were<br />
delivered to 34 survivors.<br />
The program addressed the subjects<br />
of financial abuse, safety planning,<br />
financial goal setting, budgeting,<br />
saving, debt management and<br />
credit.<br />

Advocacy<br />
(new in <strong>2012</strong>)<br />
For more than 100 years, the<br />
<strong>YWCA</strong> of O‘ahu has worked to<br />
improve the lives of women,<br />
girls and people of all races. We<br />
continue our efforts in economic<br />
empowerment, health and<br />
wellness, racial justice and<br />
civil rights through advocacy<br />
efforts which include dialogue,<br />
education, and organized<br />
action.<br />
In <strong>2012</strong>, advocacy by the <strong>YWCA</strong><br />
included: community education<br />
and outreach on women’s issues<br />
and racial justice; monitoring<br />
and testifying on bills at the state<br />
and federal level; suggested<br />
‘take- action’ items to our<br />
members; OpEds to our local<br />
papers; and strong partnerships<br />
with other women’s and<br />
advocating organizations.<br />
March marked Women’s History<br />
Month. In celebration of the<br />
monumental advances that<br />
have been made to empower<br />
women in our country, the<br />
<strong>YWCA</strong> of O‘ahu launched its<br />
<strong>2012</strong> Women’s History Month<br />
Series. The topics covered<br />
included:<br />
Women’s Reproductive Rights<br />
Women’s Voting Rights<br />
Title IX Access for Women<br />
Women in the Workplace<br />
Women in the Military<br />
In late spring, members of<br />
the <strong>YWCA</strong> of O‘ahu, <strong>YWCA</strong><br />
Kaua‘i and <strong>YWCA</strong> Hawai‘i<br />
Island were in Washington DC<br />
for our annual conference and<br />
“Capitol Hill Day.” As a statewide<br />
coalition, we met with our<br />
U.S. Senators and Representatives<br />
to advocate for the importance<br />
of the Community Development<br />
Block Grant (CDBG), Child<br />
Care Development Block Grant<br />
(CCDBG), Victims of Crime Act<br />
(VOCA), and Violence Against<br />
Women Act (VAWA).<br />
In the fall, we participated in<br />
‘Get Out the Vote’ by holding<br />
voter registration drives. We also<br />
held a voter-registration training<br />
for the Young Women’s Network<br />
who also registered voters.<br />
The <strong>YWCA</strong> of O‘ahu will continue<br />
to build on this momentum and<br />
strengthen its advocacy efforts to<br />
eliminate racism and empower<br />
women.<br />

Fitness<br />
Impact of the <strong>YWCA</strong><br />
“I thoroughly enjoyed taking<br />
swim lessons at the <strong>YWCA</strong><br />
of O‘ahu! At my age,<br />
learning how to swim was<br />
a milestone for me—my<br />
happiest moment, my<br />
greatest accomplishment.<br />
Now I can practice every<br />
day in Aqua class.”<br />
— Sophie Adversalo,<br />
Member<br />
“When you learn to swim at<br />
the <strong>YWCA</strong> our instructors<br />
customize their teaching<br />
to fit your individual<br />
needs whether you take<br />
a group or private class.<br />
Our program is flexible so<br />
you can schedule classes<br />
around a busy schedule.<br />
We teach with heart<br />
because we care.”<br />
— Alexis Moon, Aquatics<br />
Program Manager and<br />
Swim Instructor<br />
“Alexis is a very good<br />
teacher. She knows how<br />
to see what level you<br />
are, or how comfortable<br />
and confident you are in<br />
the water, and get you<br />
to a place where you<br />
feel comfortable. I really<br />
enjoyed it and plan to sign<br />
up again to continue to<br />
improve. It’s never too late<br />
to learn how to swim!”<br />
— Rosemarie Ramos,<br />
Member<br />
Aquatics<br />
In 1912, the <strong>YWCA</strong> of O‘ahu<br />
began offering swimming<br />
lessons at a member’s<br />
private residence.<br />
Our own swimming pool<br />
was built in 1927, when<br />
Laniākea, designed by Julia<br />
Morgan was built.<br />
In <strong>2012</strong> we celebrated the<br />
100th anniversary of swim<br />
lessons at the <strong>YWCA</strong> of<br />
O‘ahu! We continue to<br />
offer a comprehensive swim<br />
instruction program. Hawai‘i<br />
is surrounded by water and,<br />
for their safety, our keiki<br />
need to learn how to swim!<br />
The <strong>YWCA</strong> at Kokokahi has been home<br />
to the Adaptive Swim for the Hawai‘i<br />
State Department of Education for<br />
20 years. It provides swimming lessons<br />
to students with severe impairments.<br />
The accomplishments made by each<br />
student are amazing.<br />
Alexis Moon, Aquatics Manager at<br />
<strong>YWCA</strong> Kokokahi says, “We feel that<br />
everyone should have an opportunity<br />
to participate in water activities<br />
regardless of ability.”<br />
Coach Erin Hisatake has been<br />
running the program for the last seven<br />
years. She says, “This is why I teach<br />
swimming—there is so much joy in<br />
seeing these students blossom in the<br />
water.”<br />

Fitness<br />
Health & Wellness<br />
The <strong>YWCA</strong> of O‘ahu<br />
continues its legacy<br />
of providing exercise,<br />
dance and other fitness<br />
opportunities for its<br />
members at all three of<br />
its locations, through the<br />
“Balance Plan” fitness<br />
program. We encourage<br />
individuals to tailor a path<br />
to a healthier lifestyle by<br />
setting health and wellness<br />
goals. It means choices,<br />
options, and support as<br />
you choose your path to a<br />
healthier lifestyle.<br />
In <strong>2012</strong>, the <strong>YWCA</strong> of O‘ahu began<br />
offering Corporate Wellness classes<br />
to groups. A customized program is<br />
developed for each group.<br />
We also began offering of Egan<br />
Inoue’s Fit Body Bootcamp at<br />
<strong>YWCA</strong> Laniākea on October 1,<br />
<strong>2012</strong>, to keep pace with current<br />
trends and demands in fitness.<br />

now. I don’t want to stop.<br />
The best thing I did this year<br />

someone to exercise, I’ll be<br />
happy.”<br />

(new in <strong>2012</strong>)<br />
To cultivate the next<br />
generation of women<br />
leaders, the <strong>YWCA</strong> of O‘ahu<br />
launched the Young Women’s<br />
Network in July, The program<br />
provides opportunities for high<br />
school girls to network with<br />
women leaders, advance<br />
their leadership potential<br />
and advocate for womenfriendly<br />
policies in a culturally<br />
appropriate way.<br />
The <strong>2012</strong> Young Women’s<br />
Network Board, comprised<br />
of 13 high school juniors<br />
and seniors, was selected<br />
from local high schools. The<br />
board members develop skills<br />
such as critical thinking and<br />
relationship building as they<br />
experience the leadership<br />
training and collaborate to<br />
plan events for the Network<br />
which involves an additional<br />
100 - 200 high school girls from<br />
across the island.<br />
This new program was<br />
designed to develop high<br />
school girls’ leadership and<br />
advocacy skills, using real life<br />
examples and mentors from the<br />
business and professional world.<br />
Topics range from public speaking<br />
and networking to meeting<br />
coordination and advocacy.<br />
One advocacy exercise involved<br />
registering their peers to vote.<br />

Impact of the <strong>YWCA</strong><br />
“I feel like<br />
we started<br />
conversations<br />
among our<br />
friends and<br />
classmates<br />
about what<br />
is going on in<br />
this election<br />
year. We can make a<br />
difference through voting.<br />
Our impact through voting<br />
can affect not only the<br />
candidates but our lives. This<br />
activity at Young Women’s<br />
Network made me a lot<br />
more aware of issues and<br />
topics that are<br />
important to us.”<br />
— Lauren Aratani, high<br />
school junior, Young<br />
Women’s Network Board of<br />
Directors<br />
“When I saw<br />
the slogan<br />
for the Young<br />
Women’s<br />
Network at<br />
the <strong>YWCA</strong>—<br />
‘eliminate<br />
racism,<br />
empower<br />
women’—it just really hit<br />
me. After learning about<br />
the injustices in the world, it<br />
made me want to act. And<br />
what better way than with<br />
people who share my drive<br />
and my passion to help.”<br />
— Connie Lee, high school<br />
junior, Young Women’s<br />
Network Board of Directors<br />
