At the Y, strengthening the foundation of our community is our cause. We believe that lasting change can only come about when we all work together to invest in our health, our children and our neighbors.
As part of the Y’s commitment to create access for all, we provide financial assistance, called Open Doors, to make Y membership and programs accessible to everyone. The Y provides more than $5.1 million in assistance annually to more than 38,000 people.
