Y Volunteer Opportunities

The Westfield Area Y welcomes volunteers. Volunteers are the "heart" of the Y. Whether it's spending time with children, greeting the public, helping at a street fair, or offering clerical or tutoring assistance, . . . there's just no way to put a price tag on the sense of fulfillment that comes from helping someone else. If you'd like to get involved and become a part of the Westfield Area Y family of volunteers, please call Rose Mary Castellone at 908-233-2700 x268.

STRONG KIDS
Annual Support Campaign
The Westfield Y's Annual Support Campaign is a yearly appeal for contributions to support scholarship and ensure that all in need who wish to participate in the Y's asset-building programs and services are able. Your financial contribution helps us provide the emotional support families in need deserve -- the support they get at the Y.

A gift to the STRONG KIDS campaign is an investment
in the future. At the Westfield Y, one of our most important goals has always been to enrich the lives of children, youth and teens. We believe that giving them a safe and nurturing "home- away-from-home" benefits everyone. Y programs reinforce important values such as caring, honesty, respect and responsibility. Through a variety of fun and rewarding activities, they also develop valuable skills while gaining confidence and self-esteem. You simply can't put a price on strengthening and enriching the health, safety, security and character of a child. For more information, please call the Westfield Area Y at 908-233-2700.

Endowment Program
Become a member of The Westfield Area Y Triangle
Society. Your contributions help us continue our work in building leaders of tomorrow. Gifts can
include an outright gift, a bequest in a will, a gift
of life insurance, a gift of real estate with retained
life interest and gifts that provide income to donors during their lifetime. Call Mark Elsasser, Executive Director at (908) 233-2700 ext. 224 for
