The YWCA Mankato is dedicated to eliminating racism, empowering women and promoting peace, justice, freedom and dignity for all.

Our purpose is to build a stronger community by developing the leadership of women, girls and diverse populations. According to the Harvard Business Review, women now drive the world economy. The economic growth and sustainability of the greater Mankato community depends upon the success of our women and girls, and all of the members of our increasingly diverse population.
