THIS IS Y: 2025 Annual Campaign – Copy

The YMCA is a hub in your community for people of ALL ages to participate in athletics, programming, fitness classes and community events. It’s where children receive quality childcare and support in a safe environment. And it’s where 100’s of kids have the best summer ever.

We have seen firsthand how the Y is making a difference in the lives of youth, families, and seniors in our community. What makes us unique is our ability to serve all ages, all stages of life, from any backgrounds-regardless of their ability to pay. At the y, we are here for YOU. What keeps me connected to the YMCA are stories like this:

“Our family has had a tough season. In the last year alone we have suffered the loss of a child, multiple deaths of loved ones, job loss & increasing financial barriers in a home where there are disabilities for multiple family members coupled with other ongoing struggles. This scholarship would help support our family by providing the children with a safe place to go after school while encouraging the formation of friendships & fostering a sense of belonging in a stable community that promotes equality & the opportunity for individuals to reach their full potential with dignity”
