Join Feeding the Spirit and YWCA Westmoreland County as we partner to offer a friendly chili cook-off fundraiser. Local restaurants will bring their famous chili to share with the community. After tasting each chili, participants will have the chance to select their top 3 winners. The final winners will be recognized at the event. Proceeds benefit Feeding the Spirit and YWCA Westmoreland County.

The YWCA Westmoreland is proud to partner with S&T Bank to offer this valuable cybersecurity event. This will focus on staying safe while shopping online.

During the celebration, YWCA staff will be present with cards stating “Unity Is” for community members to sign. In recognition of the National Day of Healing, please write down your thoughts about what unity means to you. This is a time to for all community members to openly discuss the ways in which racism has harmed them in pursuit of restoring wholeness and cultivating trust. The National Day of Racial Healing is a call for communities to imagine a world free of racism and discrimination and determine changes that must be made to active racial equality. Thoughts will be posted in the YWCA Founder’s Room until the end of Black History Month (February 28, 2025).
