YMCA SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM The YMCA works to ensure that regardless of

ability to pay, we make it possible for everyone in the

community to participate in our programs and

affordable. In previous years, the Y awarded over

$250,000 in membership and program subsidies to

those who could not afford the fees.

If you believe in the mission of the Y and you

believe in how the Y can help individuals and

families in our community with improving their health,

then please consider a donation to the Jersey Shore
