SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

The Y is now… as it has always been… a place of possibility and promise for all. Unfortunately, in times when the true power of “us” is unknown to many and our bonds are fraying, we must do even more to enhance our human connections. That’s why the Y passionately focuses on strengthening communities.

Every day, the Y strengthens communities for kids, adults, seniors and fami- lies with programs that protect, teach, connect, heal, nourish and encourage. It’s how we help communities and the “us” who live in them find the power of their full potential.

We can’t do it alone.

DONATE FOR A BETTER US.

The Y. For a better us.
