Story
Thank you for supporting Y Giving Day! With your help, we will raise $80,000 to support the people and programs of our Y! Every gift counts, no matter the size.
The projects seeking support are listed below. Please choose an area (or two!) you are excited about and give generously, so we can continue to provide amazing opportunities within our community.
1.) We will be raising funds to replace old and worn-out gymnastics equipment. Items needed are: New Bars- $1,500, New Spring Board - $700 and new Vault System - $3,000. The goal is $5,200.
2.) We will be raising funds for upgrades to the art room at the Community Youth Center. We will be funding new art supplies, desks, tables, a storage system, and a new floor. Leftover funds will be used to help soundproof the music room. The goal for this project is $7,000.
3.) Our Community Food Forest is in need of upgrades to allow for greater accessibility. With this project, we aim to raise funds to build accessible raised beds in the Food Forest. The goal for this project is $6,000.
4.) Our Community Health Workers help families experiencing homelessness within the community. There are some circumstances when available resources don't fully meet the needs of a client. We will raise funds for our Community Health Workers so they can best meet the emergency needs of their clients. Goal is $5,000
5.) The piano used for music lessons is decades old and is in dire need of replacement. In addition, many young people lack access to adequate keyboards or pianos for practice at home. We will raise funds for a new piano and a bank of keyboards for students to "check out" while in music lessons. The goal is $6,500.
6.) When the Y reopened its doors after the Covid shutdown, our senior members were among the first to come back to the Y. Each day, our active older adults exercise and enjoy socializing with each other in our lobbies. To ensure more seniors have access to our wonderful community, we will sponsor 10 annual senior memberships or $4,560.
7.) A New Direction is the Y's Youth Cancer Survivorship Program. Youth at any stage in their cancer journey are eligible to join us and receive a complimentary family membership for one year and either 24 personal training sessions or unlimited programming. We will sponsor 8 children and their families, or $12,000.
8.) Our Youth Food Program will be seeking funds to stock the Mobile Food Pantry and replace broken refrigerators at our School-Aged Care sites. The goal for this project is $10,000.
9.) We rely on donations from members and friends to ensure that everyone in our community has access to the health, wellness and recreation opportunities available at our Y. This program also applies to childcare, school-aged care, and youth programming. The goal for this project is $25,000.
Thank you for your support on Y Giving Day!
