For Immediate Release
Lancaster, Pa. – Barley Snyder attorney Jayne Katherman has been named to the YWCA Junior Board of the YWCA Greater Harrisburg. She began her role on August 25.
The YWCA Junior Board consists of a dynamic group of young women ages 21 to 35 who are committed to raising awareness and funds in support of the mission and operations of the YWCA Greater Harrisburg, according to its website.
“I am thrilled for this opportunity to contribute to such an admirable organization,” said Katherman. “Being part of an all women-led board which serves to empower women and promote their equality is incredibly inspiring and rewarding, especially in the current political and societal climate.”
The primary focus of the Junior Board is fundraising for YWCA’s Camp Reily, an outdoor summer day camp for children dedicated to promoting teamwork, creativity, hands-on education and physical activity.
