WELCOMEWe are a powerful association of men, women and

children joined together by a shared commitment to

nurture the potential of kids, promote healthy living and foster a sense of social responsibility.

We believe that lasting personal and social change

can only come about when we all work together to

invest in our kids, our health and our neighbors.

That’s why strengthening community is our cause.

Every day, we work side by side with our neighbors

in 10,000 communities to make sure that everyone,

regardless of age, income or background, has the

opportunity to learn, grow and thrive.

Giving back and supporting our neighbors is part of what makes the Y the Y. We’re a community and we lend a hand where we can.

MEMBERSHIP FOR ALL We believe everyone deserves a Y, so the Kirk Family YMCA offers financial assistance to individuals and families who might otherwise not be able to afford membership or program fees. Ask a staff member about financial assistance. It’s easy to apply and the Y does everything it can to make the Y a place for all.

VOLUNTEER, DONATE & ADVOCATE As a nonprofit, the Y is able to strengthen community because of the dedicated youth, families and individuals who share our passion and make the Y part of their lives. They give their time, resources and talents—every day and in hundreds of ways—because they know they can improve the lives of others while enhancing their own through the Y.

Well-being for many of our neighbors is all too frequently limited by income or social isolation. In low-income communities, the Y offers opportunities for every child, teen or adult to achieve his or her potential regardless of economic status. With your help, the Y can continue to expand programming and outreach where it is needed most. Please consider volunteering your time, making a contribution, or sharing your story of the Y’s impact.
