On a cold December evening in 1955, Rosa Parks quietly incited a revolution — by just sitting down. She was tired after spending the day at work as a department store seamstress. She stepped onto the bus for the ride home and sat in the fifth row — the first row of the “Colored Section.”
The YWCA Gettysburg & Adams County is asking you to “stand up” for social justice and become a Mission Member, showing your support for our basic, but essential, mission of “eliminating racism, empowering women.”
The Mission Membership, beyond the ultra-important goal of standing up for social justice here in Adams County, will entitle you to a waived joining fee for future rec pass membership as well as discounts for current YWCA services and programs.
