2022 Annual Campaign

Annual Campaign

We continue to focus on programs that support youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility. Through our annual campaign efforts, we can focus on meeting the needs of our community.

No one is turned away due to inability to pay. 

Each year, we provide scholarships to those in need. This allows more kids the opportunity to attend camp, receive swimming education and participate in programs for youth leaders to build character and confidence. Scholarships also provide opportunities for families in need to become YMCA members.

Financial scholarship awards range from 20%-75% off regular fees.

Here's how your gift will help strengthen our community:

$5,000 / year     will support 50 youth in developing their leadership skills through Youth in Government and other youth leadership programs at the YMCA

$2,500 / year     will provide 40 kids with access to free Safety Around Water classes

$1,000 / year     will provide two families access to a year-long YMCA membership to become healthier and happier in a safe and welcoming place
