A GIFT ONLINE
Now,
more than ever, people need the
YMCA. The YMCA is an
invaluable resource for our
community which is dedicated
to promoting healthy lifestyles,
empowering our youth, and
strengthening our families.
In these extraordinary and uncertain
economic times, the New Canaan YMCA
is playing an even more important
role for so many more in our
community, and more people than ever
are seeking our programs and
services.
Like many
other organizations, the Y has been
impacted by the recent economic
events. However, it's also
important to know that no one is
ever turned away from YMCA
membership or programs for financial
reasons. The All Kids Are Our
Kids campaign makes this—and so
much more— happen.
The
campaign supports the YMCA’s
charitable mission of community
service by:
- Providing
membership and program
scholarships to kids, families,
and seniors. Last year,
the New Canaan YMCA awarded
nearly $250,000 to deserving
families in our community.
- Helping
to subsidize essential mission
based programs—like Y-Swim
Lessons, Recreational Leagues,
childcare, and Teen
Nights—keeping them affordable
to all.
- Funding
programs for children and adults
with special needs.
- Providing
seed funding for new programs
that respond to our
community’s changing needs, as
well as YWorld Service
initiatives.
- Stewarding
the Y’s future through our
permanent endowment fund.
For
more than 50 years, the New Canaan
YMCA has kept our community healthy.
Perhaps the Y helps to keep you and
your family healthy. We
hope you will consider taking the
opportunity to support an
organization that has given so much
to our community and children.
Won’t you help keep the YMCA
healthy by supporting this year’s
campaign? Whatever you can.
However you can. The campaign
is not about people giving more;
it’s about more people giving.
Together. For our community.
