Join Our Team!
Each year, a team of over 150 people come together to share the Y’s impact through stories. We also request donations so we can stay true to our promise to turn no one away because of an inability to pay. This year we’ve raised $200,000 towards our $300,000 goal and are inviting you to join our team for the final $100,000!
To show our appreciation for your generous donation, you will be recognized by having your name posted on Facebook, tweeted on Twitter, and written on the “Y Thermometer” displayed in all 3 branches showing our progress. We want you to “Join Our Team!”
Visit our Annual Support Campaign page to learn more or donate online.
Annual Support Campaign
There is no place quite like the Y. We are a vital part of Cumberland County; a welcoming place to learn new skills, connect with others, and access support in times of need. Our unique combination of services enriches the well-being of people of all ages and walks of life. As a nonprofit organization, we never turn anyone away who needs us. We need your financial support to continue to keep that promise.
For sisters Amanda and Kara the Y has provided a place to form valuable family memories and a much needed sense of normalcy. For years, their mother, Dilia, could be found at the Y with her daughters, working out with them or cheering them on in swim team. Tragically, that ended in the summer of 2010 after a heroic seven year battle with cancer. However, thanks to the Y and financial assistance, Amanda, Kara, and their father, Paul, continue to belong at the Y. Through relationships they have deepened with caring adults and teammates at the Y, the family feels a much needed sense of belonging and support. It is through donations to our annual support campaign that the Y is able to support this family and 5,000 other members when in need.
