Our Neighbors Need The Y. The Y Needs You.

Every dollar makes a difference at the Y. As a donor, you help us provide our neighbors with the programs and support they need to navigate these challenging times. In 2020, nearly half of all Colorado households reported losing work income due to the pandemic. In 2021, individuals and families will need support to help rebound from financial and employment loss, and we believe that the Y will play an important role in that recovery.

Together, we will once again thrive. Give today.

In 2020, when the pandemic struck, the Y showed up in ways that even we couldnt have imagined possible. Within 48 hours of stay-at-home orders, we developed emergency childcare programs for essential workers. We launched virtual wellness classes and reached out to thousands of isolated seniors. We developed remote learning programs and partnered with other nonprofits to support food security efforts. We adapted over and over.

Today, the YMCA of Northern Colorado continues to empower and support families, children and seniors as they navigate the pandemic, their financial and employment losses, continued isolation, a surplus of screen time and a deficit of connection with nature, their physical and mental health and their own communities. We will help our neighbors work toward recovery and thrive once again.

However, recovery for the Y will take years. Due to state and local mandates, the Y has lost more than a quarter of its membership and every program has seen losses. We need your help to ensure that our communities can benefit from the Y long into the future.

During this years Community Support Campaign, help us continue our meaningful work. Give today.
