YMCA Annual Campaign Celebrates 150 Years of Strengthening Generations!

The Y is more than a gym...we're a cause. There's cardio, and there's also school-based counseling to address the increasing need for mental health care in high-risk communities. There's pickleball, and there's also support for chronic disease and crisis prevention. There's swim lessons, and there's also scholarships to enrich Y summer camp and affordable child care programs.

Our Y has been here since 1874 strengthening families and communities. No one is turned away for the inability to pay. But we don't do this work alone.

The purpose of the Y’s Annual Campaign has always been to help our local community and provide financial assistance so that everyone – no matter their age, income, or background – can access the programs and services of our Y.

Through our Y’s Annual Campaign, we are welcoming new faces in our pools, gyms, camps, and classrooms, and in programs that help families become stronger, more capable, and more connected.

THANKS TO YOU, ALL ARE WELCOME AT THE Y
