reaching our potential
The Y. For a better us.
Today, we will welcome a child into our after-school program who would not be there if it weren’t for you. We will help an active older adult remain physically active, socially connected and independent. A teen will have the opportunity to be surrounded by positive role models, while a preschooler will learn valuable skills to stay safe in and around the water.
All of this will happen because of you.
Every dollar donated to our Y has a lasting impact of the people of Northwest Florida. In 2018, we gave back $628,000 in membership, programs and services to youth, families, adults and seniors who might not otherwise have been able to have the Y experience.
Your gift helps us say yes to everyone.
For youth development. for healthy living. for social responsibility.
