FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE

The Y is committed to providing financial assistance to those who cannot afford the full price of Y membership or programs. That’s the purpose of the Friend of Youth Annual Campaign. All Annual Campaign funds remain in our local community, giving children and families an opportunity to get involved in Y programs.

Financial Assistance covers Membership and all Y Programs. If approved, assistance expires every 6 months and members are required to re-apply in writing, or they will be moved to a regular priced plan. Members must complete our Financial Assistance application and provide financial documentation for consideration.
