WeBuildPeople is the YMCA of the Triangle’s Annual Campaign, a community-wide effort to raise funds for children, teens, families, and adults who otherwise could not afford YMCA programs or services. Every dollar raised from WeBuildPeople is invested in the lives of people with needs. WeBuildPeople provides scholarships and financial assistance for all YMCA programs including summer day camps, after school programs, youth sports, and adult fitness programs and activities. Through the generosity of volunteers and donors, no one is ever turned away from the YMCA of the Triangle for the inability to pay for programs. In addition to program and membership scholarships, the YMCA of the Triangle offers 100 percent subsidized programs for neighborhoods in Wake, Durham, Johnston, Lee and Pamlico counties. These are neighborhoods where children would go unserved if not for the dollars from WeBuildPeople and the dedication of volunteers and staff. Last year, the YMCA of the Triangle invested nearly $4.2 million to serve 7,754 children, teens, adults and families in need. The WeBuildPeople Campaign provided $3.4 million; general contributions and YMCA operations funded the balance. Thanks to the involvement of nearly 1,700 volunteers, the YMCA celebrated a record-breaking annual campaign in 2006/07, raising $3,401,308.09 to exceed its $3 million goal. The YMCA of the Triangle is for everyone. WeBuildPeople makes that possible.
