We did it! Thanks to the generosity of 273 donors we surpassed our Scrabble campaign goal and raised more than $17,100 for the Y’s financial assistance program.

Your generosity helps support individuals like this one whose life has been touched by the Y:

"I grew up coming to the Y. I learned to swim at our Y. I found confidence in the water. I went to day camp. I did school programs. I hung out in Kids Club while my parents worked out. The Y was a fundamental part of my childhood.

Growing up we didn’t have much money for extra things, but at the Y, money was never an obstacle. We grew up with one car and would often find ourselves walking or taking the bus to the Y. It was a place where I got to be like all of my friends.

I started to go to the Y by myself when I was 10 or 12, and could meet up with all of my friends. We would swim for hours. We would play basketball and our own version of racquetball. The Y is so much more than a gym. It's a community. It’s safety. It’s a place to belong."
