Did You Know We Have a Chaplaincy Program?

The Chaplaincy Program is one of the many ways the Y intentionally lives out our mission. Our Chaplains demonstrate the love of Jesus by serving, supporting, and caring for the staff, members, and guests of the YMCA—whether through faith-based programming or simply offering a listening ear and an encouraging word.

Support the Y

At the Y, strengthening community is our cause. You can help kids learn, grow and thrive, as well as ensure no one is ever turned away due to the inability to pay. Donations provide financial assistance to make Y programs available to everyone in our community.

Every gift makes a difference. Everyone has a role to play. Together, we can do so much more.
