The YMCA plays a large role helping children, families, and older adults navigate the challenges and opportunities of everyday life. The Strong Communities annual giving campaign is a volunteer-led fund-raising campaign that secures funds needed to assist people of our communities in their time of need; no one is turned away due to their financial situation. The YMCA strives to assist everyone in need of our programs and services. We believe in helping all people lead healthier, happier lives. If you enjoy being a YMCA member and the programs we offer, perhaps you would consider helping someone else.  A gift of $5 over 5 months is an easy way to give and can make a big difference in someone else's life.
