Missoula -- On Tuesday, April 9, Mayor John Engen stopped by YWCA Missoula to see firsthand how a legacy of National Service resources can impact an organization’s ability to grow and serve. The visit was part of the First Annual Mayor’s Day of Recognition for National Service, launched by the Corporation for National and Community Service.

“AmeriCorps members allow us to serve more people and build the infrastructure we need to improve our programs and have a long-lasting impact on the community,” said Cindy Weese, YWCA Missoula executive director. "National service members are the reason we are the thriving organization we are today."

Secret Seconds stores support programs for domestic violence, homelessness and girls’ empowerment programs

MISSOULA - YWCA Missoula’s Secret Seconds Thrift Store at 1136 W. Broadway broke ground today on a 5800-square-foot expansion that is projected to increase the non-profit’s annual net revenue by an additional $200,000 to support women and families in Missoula.

“The additional income will help cover so many of the gaps we have in funding,” said Cindy Weese, YWCA Missoula executive director. “When we put dollars and time into our stores, the return is huge.”

In fiscal year 2012, the two Secret Seconds stores (1136 W. Broadway and 920 Kensington) provided $306,000 in net income, which supported the organization’s domestic and sexual violence programs, housing for homeless families, the GUTS (Girls Using Their Strengths)! program and administration costs.
