We don't just talk about change; we make it happen
At Solarity, we believe in action, not just words. That's why we are proud to present our annual Community Impact Report – a testament to our unwavering commitment to the communities of Yakima and Kittitas Counties, as well as the surrounding areas we proudly serve.
From providing our members with keys to their forever homes to supporting critical causes through donations and sponsorships, our journey this past year was all about making a positive difference. But that's not all. Our incredible staff also dedicated their time and energy to volunteer initiatives that warmed hearts and brightened lives.
We look forward to sharing the remarkable stories and achievements that define Solarity's role as a force for good in our neighborhoods for many years to come.

How you can help
This year, we are asking our members to donate what they can to help make the holidays a little brighter for all the families the YWCA serves. Giving options include:
Donate an unwrapped toy or item from the wish lists above. You can drop these gifts off at any Solarity branch or ship online purchases directly to 110 N 5th in Yakima now through December 13.
Make a cash donation at any Solarity Branch by simply mentioning it to a team member. All donations will be given to the YWCA.
Donate through online or mobile banking. Here's how it works:
- Within online banking, select "transfer" then select the account you wish to donate from
- In the "To Account" field, choose "Another Member"
- Enter the account number, which is "180786," and then for last name enter "YWCA"
- Submit!
Thank you for your generosity and willingness to help so many families this holiday season!
