DOUBLE YOUR IMPACT THIS GIVING TUESDAY
GivingTuesday will take place on Tuesday, December 2nd. Thanks to our generous community partners, your gift to the YMCA of Youngstown will go twice as far to help local youth reach their full potential.
OUR GOAL FOR 2025
This GivingTuesday, we’re striving to raise $20,000 to ensure more young people in our community have the opportunities, relationships, and resources they need to learn, grow, and thrive. Your gift, of any size, helps create safe, nurturing spaces where youth can build confidence, learn new skills, and feel a strong sense of belonging.
Here's How Your Generosity Can Make a Meaningful Impact:
- $70 – Provides a child with one session of swim lesson. With the match: $70 becomes $140 – supporting two sessions.
- $80 – Gives a child one full week of after-school care in an encouraging, enrichment-focused environment. With the match: $80 becomes $160 – covering two weeks.
- $120 – Enrolls a young person in a full season of youth basketball, promoting teamwork, confidence, and healthy activity. With the match: $120 becomes $240 – supporting two children.
"Because of the Y, I learned to swim and found my purpose." Morgan's journey started with free swim lessons, and through donor support is now a certified lifeguard.
The Y changes the lives of children in our community every day.
"The Y has impacted my life for the better by getting me stronger, in better shape, and making me aware of the work ethic need to box." Christopher began his boxing journey at the Y.
With your donation you will be helping children access youth sports, summer camps, after school programs and so much more.
"I love swimming and passing my swim test - it made me feel so brave!" Through the Y's after school program, Journie gained confidence, new skills, and a love for learning.
Together, we're building a stronger, more connected community.
