The Advocacy Center Donates Books to YWCA




Staff from The Advocacy Center recently donated several dozen new books and blankets to the YWCA, an organization that supports women and children. Each staff member from The Advocacy Center brought at least one book to the agency’s annual staff retreat, and explained to the group why that book was meaningful to them. The books were then collected, and April Dixon and Anna Costalas delivered the books and blankets to the YWCA on October 13, 2010.
