What Making More Possible Means for Your Community
Donating to the Y has a significant impact on your community. Your generosity helps us make more possible by providing programs and services that support youth development, promote health and wellness, and strengthen families and communities.

You can be the difference
Simple acts of kindness can have a large and lasting impact.
At the YMCA, we know there is strength in numbers. Whether you contribute your time, share the YMCA story, or make a donation, you help us strengthen the foundations of our community. The YMCA is able to provide scholarships for child care and memberships to community members in need with your help. YMCA is a 501(c)3 charitable entity and your contribution is tax-deductible. When we give our time and expertise, donate food and clothing, or make monetary contributions—both large and small—together, we strengthen our community.
The Y is committed to helping our community build a stronger, healthier, and better us. We hope you’ll consider contributing to the Y. Every gift—no matter how big or small—makes an enduring impact right here in our neighborhood.
Why the Y
The Y was formed in 1844 to serve all of our neighbors and strengthen our community. We work hard to empower everyone through Youth Sports, Healthy Living, and Social Responsibility.
