The International Women's
Association of Yakima (IWAY) is an organization of international and international-minded
women living in the Yakima Valley. Formed in 2002, the club's members
assist women from other countries to build friendships with women in the
Yakima Valley and to support them in their transition to a successful
life.
The IWAY Club meets monthly from September through May for a monthly
event or program. The programs vary from celebrations of a particular
country's culture to talks on international issues and concerns and other
topics of interest. Several months in the year are set aside for social
events where foods from members' countries and stories of members' lives
are shared.
Currently, the club's members include women who come from, or
have significant ties to:
