Why Give to the Y

Make a Difference

When you give to the Y, you’re giving back to your community and ensuring that we can all participate in programs that help us learn, grow, and thrive.  From childcare to senior programs to financial assistance for membership, your gift helps us deepen our impact in the community. Every day, the Y strengthens communities for kids, adults, seniors, and families with programs that protect, teach, connect, heal, nourish, and encourage. It’s how we help communities and the “us” who live in them find the power of their full potential. We can’t do it alone. Together, we can continue to meet our communities’ emerging needs by supporting our neighbors and giving back.

  1. Support Community Programs:
    • Your contributions help fund youth programs, fitness classes, swimming lessons, and more, making them accessible to everyone regardless of their financial situation.
  2. Promote Healthy Lifestyles:
    • Donations enable us to offer wellness programs that encourage physical activity, healthy living, and mental well-being for all ages.
  3. Strengthen Families and Communities:
    • With your help, we can continue to foster a sense of community through inclusive and supportive programs that bring people together.
