Giving Tuesday is a global movement that encourages generosity and giving back to communities and causes. At the Y, we believe everyone should have the opportunity to improve their health, enrich their lives, and feel more connected to the community. 

Our Y counts on the generosity of donors to raise funds for our financial assistance program so that no one who qualifies is denied a chance to participate at the Y because of their ability to pay. Help us make a meaningful difference and support the Strong Kids+ Campaign in a number of ways this season:
