Welcome to WGAC (Formerly JWCC Akron)

We are excited to announce that JWCC Akron has a new name: Women for Greater Akron Charities (WGAC). Our mission remains the same!

Why the Change? Our new name better reflects our commitment to serving the Greater Akron area and our dedication to making a positive impact. While our name has changed, our core values and dedication to the community remain steadfast.

What This Means for You

Same Mission, New Name: Our focus on supporting local non-profit organizations and strengthening our community continues.

Expanded Reach: With our new name, we aim to broaden our impact and engage even more women in our mission.

Continued Support: We will continue to provide financial support to organizations that qualify as exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
