Strengthening Families

At the Y, we provide resources, programs and experiences designed to support and strengthen families. After all, strong families are essential to strong, connected, healthy communities. 

Through the Annual Campaign, we provide more than $1 million each year in scholarships and access to individuals and families, allowing more children and teens to experience the physical, social and emotional benefits of programs like summer camp. 

Refugee Family Support

For nearly 50 Ukrainian families, the YMCA camp experience provided more than fun this summer. As refugees from their native country, their children have faced turmoil and experiences that are difficult for most of us to imagine.

 

Through the Y, parents like Nataliia and Oleksandr have seen their respective children make friends, learn a new language and grow confident in a new country.

 

 

"Seeing the joy on the children's faces after their first day in YMCA was truly heartwarming. It was evident that they were in a safe and nurturing environment, where they could learn, play and create wonderful memories."

- Nataliia, YMCA Day Camp Parent
