Celebrating a Century of Service: YWCA Retirement Fund Featured in Pensions & Investments

As the YWCA Retirement Fund (YWCARF) continues into its second century of serving YWCA employees nationwide, we are proud to highlight a feature published during its centennial year in Pensions & Investments: YWCA Retirement Fund celebrates 100 years of empowering women through financial security.

The article traces the Fund’s origins, launched in 1925 with support from the Rockefeller family, and follows its evolution over time.

Today, YWCARF remains one of the oldest pension plans for women in the United States and continues its mission of providing retirement benefits to employees across the YWCA network.
