Community Starts with You!

Building community starts with you! And our families need your help!

Join us for our Build Community with US Event, An Evening to Support the Downtown YMCA! At the Y, we believe that everyone should have the opportunity to reach their fullest potential, and supporting the Y provides hope to those that need our services the most.

Your involvement could not come at a more critical time. Your gifts to this year’s event will impact the Downtown YMCA community in significant ways. 

In 2020, the Downtown YMCA touched so many lives: 

• 108 kids learned about water safety and attended swim lessons. 
• 112 senior well checks were completed by phone during our forced closures in March & April. 
• 1,390 kids developed leadership skills and self-confidence through sports at the Downtown, Maple Street, and ButlerGast locations.
• 25 young people attended YMCA Summer Day Camp after several months of social distancing and limited peer interactions.  
• $79,755 in membership assistance awarded this past year to ensure YMCA programs were affordable for all, regardless of their income or backgrounds.  
• 800 families were served during the Holiday Lights Festival drive-thru event.
• 46 students attended our YMCA Enrichment Program created to support online learning models.

The generosity of our philanthropic community ensured that the YMCA had the critical funds needed to continue to offer programs and services despite the roadblocks that the Coronavirus created. YOUR donations made/make possible for our inspiring and meaningful work in the Downtown community.

More than ever the YMCA needs your help to help support OUR community. 

Thank you!
