Partners for positive change.
I support the Y because I believe in the work that they do in our community. YMCA programs help build self-confidence, teach leadership skills and reinforce positive values.
Youth and teen programs such as summer camps, childcare, and family programs are impacted by your donations.
As we all know, many worthwhile causes are in need of our support. But the YMCA stands apart from the rest. Here are some reasons why:
– The Y provides $23M in free or subsidized services annually
– In 2011, 80,000 children and teens were nurtured and inspired to do their best
– One third of all members at the Y receive financial assistance
With continued high unemployment and steep budget cuts to state and local health and education programs, Y programs are critical for the future of our community. With your support and generosity, we can continue to address these and other pressing issues – and expand the Y’s work to reach more people.
Please join me in supporting the YMCA and helping to make a difference in our community.
Give. Grow. Inspire.
