OUR CAUSE

At the Y, strengthening community is our cause. Every day, we work side-by-side with our neighbors to make sure that everyone, regardless of age, income or background, has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive.

DEVELOPING COMMUNITY LEADERS

• Provide $100,000 of financial aid to families and individuals in need of membership and program scholarships.

SUPPORTING SENIORS
