Sponsor a Kid

Youth Sponsorships

Youth sponsorship memberships keep the Y available for kids who need us most. We count on the generosity of people like you to help all kids from all walks of life be more healthy, confident, connected and secure. When you give to the Y, you nurture the potential of kids and teens in your own community.

Whether in youth sports, summer day camp or one of our afterschool programs, the Y provides fun and interactive activities that help kids develop academic skills, leadership and social skills, self-esteem, conflict resolution abilities and hobbies.

Every day the Y works side-by-side with our neighbors to make sure that everyone, regardless of age, income or background, has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive.

When you give to the YMCA’s Kids Campaign, 100% of your gift goes toward providing YMCA memberships for kids in need. By doing so, you continue to strengthen community and move us all forward.

Each gift of $100 sponsors a one-year YMCA membership for a kid.

A Y membership connects kids with afterschool programs, summer day camp, swimming, sports, arts, golf and so much more.

The result is positive, healthy and engaged kids and teens.

 Dear Friends,
Dear Friends,
Building relationships is at the heart and soul of what do we in the YMCA. For it is through relationships with positive and caring adults that kids are able to reach their potential, improve their health and lay the groundwork for a solid future.

And all kids deserve this opportunity.

That’s why we have The YMCA Kids Campaign. Kids from single parent families struggling to make ends meet, kids from unstable families that may live in low-income housing and endure extreme hardships and kids who are simply disconnected are able to belong to the YMCA and have this same opportunity.

To ensure that kids in Custer and Hermosa are able to participate in Y programming, we need your help. Please consider a gift that will make sure that each of these kids continues to learn and grow into responsible adults.

Together, we can make a difference.
