When you put your compassion into action, you provide children with a place to grow, love, and play together.

^Be a Bridge Builder for a Local Family

Your support connects a child in our community to a safe place to learn, grow, and belong before and after school.

^For a working parent, peace of mind is everything.

Knowing your child is safe while you begin and/or finish your workday makes all the difference. For many families, the Y's Before & After School program is a lifeline. It's a place where kids find friendship, get help with homework, and have a safe space to play.

But what happens when a family faces a sudden hardship? A job loss, a medical bill, or the challenges of being a single parent can put program fees just out of reach.

^That's where a Bridge Builder comes in.

Our program fees keep the lights on and the doors open. But donations build the bridge to make sure every child can be here, regardless of their family's financial situation. When you become a Bridge Builder, you give a parent peace of mind and a child a place to thrive.
