Wilma Holmes

At YU, Wilma Holmes goes by another name:“Money Out.” This nickname has been given to her from the staff and is an accurate description of her role that includes processing payroll and payables, maintaining the general ledger and providing reports for staff and board members. Having worked in a financial institution for 27 years prior to YU, you could say she’s an expert at being “Money Out.”

Wilma first became involved with Youth Unlimited as a volunteer with Youth Families, a program tailored to serving the needs of pregnant young woman, most of whom are single mothers. In her role there, Wilma willingly served young women by giving them rides when they needed it and helping with childcare.

Whether it is serving young women through immediate contact or through processing payroll for YU staff, she makes a difference. “I love being a part in the work of Youth Unlimited. I have a heart for youth and being a part of changing lives gives me great pleasure.”
