About ONYA

Our Mission

The mission of ONYA is to inspire and advance philanthropy that funds non-profit programs to foster personal growth and economic self-sufficiency among women and girls throughout Ontario and Yates Counties.

How ONYA’s Mission is realized:

 

•  By awarding grants to agencies and organizations for programs which address education, intervention, legal assistance and other relevant solutions.

​

• By creating awareness through specific programs within the communities we serve.

​

• By mentoring girls through specialized events such as “Voices of Experience”.

​​

• By building an endowment to fund grants and awareness efforts.

​

At ONYA, Ontario/Yates Fund for Women and Girls, we are committed to help women and girls become independent and self-sufficient. Explore our website to learn more about all that we’re doing to make a change.

 

We are a private, non-profit organization dedicated to raising funds for programs that meet this mission.  The Ontario/Yates Fund for Women and Girls (ONYA) is a Donor Advised Fund of the Finger Lakes Area Community Endowment (FLACE), a 501(c)(3) foundation.
