by Amber Z. (November 18, 2009)
The YWCA Central Orange County helps women in need in Orange County. The women who I volunteer with are absolutely wonderful! I love helping to assemble purses to give to women in shelters, and I also enjoy serving on the board, where I know my contributions make a difference.
