Join us in making an impact
The Y For All Campaign is more than just raising money. It’s about the life changing impact that the YMCA provides by opening doors to those in need. The child who gains confidence through learning opportunities, the active older adult who is no longer isolated and is living a healthy and active lifestyle, a family given opportunities to spend quality time together, and so many more. The stories of those impacted by the Y have the power to unite and inspire us all.
When you give to the YMCA through your IRA charitable distribution, estate plan, or annual pledge, your generosity brings about meaningful change. This past year has proven that we need to remain strong and continuously be able to adapt to changing circumstances for decades to come, and that strengthenig the Y’s endowment funds is critical to that success.
Thank you for believing in the Y.
Thanks to you, our generous donors, we are able to fulfill this mission through low-cost programs and provide direct financial assistance for families in need. One hundred percent of all dollars donated are invested into programs serving childrens, families, and seniors in our community. These programs, and your support, are vital to our community’s success. Together, we can make a lasting impact in our area and ensure meaningful change that strengthens our community.
