YMCA Financial Assistance available:We believe in equality of opportunity for all members of the community - regardless of age, ethnicity, gender, religion, or economic circumstance. Through the YMCA Opportunity Fund, the YMCA membership and program experience is available to families regardless of their ability to pay the full fees. Drop in and ask how you can get started! If you know someone who could benefit from this program, please let them know.

Financial Assistance is made possible by the YMCA Strong Kids Campaign:As a charity, the YMCA ensures that no one is turned away because of inability to pay. The Strong Kids Campaign is the major annual fundraising campaign of the YMCA. Funds raised in the campaign help over 9,000 people access YMCA programs and membership every year. Our YMCA assists approximately 22% of YMCA members with programs such as accommodation in transitional housing, emergency child care, swimming lessons, summer day camps, and programs for at-risk youth.
