You can make a life-changing impact on a teen. Your gift today will help shape teens into the incredible adults they are destined to become.
Testimonials
"Before joining the YMCA's after-school care program, I felt lost and unsure of my future. The mentors I met at the Y helped me gain confidence and taught me valuable life skills. They encouraged me to pursue my passions and even helped me apply for college. Today, I’m the first in my family to attend university, and I know I couldn’t have done it without the Y."

"At the YMCA, I found more than just a place to go after school. I found a community. The activities and team-building exercises taught me leadership, responsibility, and how to work well with others. The friendships I made are still strong today, and those lessons prepared me for my job as a youth counselor."
— Kevin
"The Y’s after-school program kept me focused and out of trouble. I didn’t have many positive influences in my life before, but the staff at the Y believed in me and pushed me to do better. Through the program, I discovered my love for technology and even got involved in coding workshops. Now, I’m studying to become a software developer, and I know the Y helped me get here."
