IMPACTING THE COMMUNITY Through the Annual Campaign

100% of your donation to the Annual Campaign is given as financial aid to those who otherwise could not afford a membership, programs or two weeks of summer camp this year, right in your own community. From March to June, members and staff form Teams to reach out and ask you, other members, friends and family to contribute to the Annual Campaign, to give a helping hand to our community. Look for stories of gratitude and inspiration from financial aid recipients displayed in the Ys. Each story is unique and heartfelt. That is what motivates us to ask for your gift to the Annual Campaign each year. On behalf of all financial aid recipients, thank you for supporting YMCA Southcoast!

Youth development Early Preschool Education Ages 2.9 – 5 years

With so many demands on today’s families, parents need all the support they can get. That’s why early childhood programs at the Y are about more than looking after kids. It’s about nurturing their development by providing a safe place to learn skills and develop relationships that lead to positive behavior, better health and educational achievement. At the Y, we also focus on role-modeling and teaching kids the Y values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility. We welcome families at all of our program sites and encourage you to visit. Holidays, parties, family nights, special programs, and field trips are all occasions for families to get involved at the Y. We are proud to be accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children for maintaining the highest professional standards in curriculum and teaching qualifications. This accreditation lets families know that children in our program are receiving the best care in early care experiences. This reinforces our mission of building strong kids, strong families and strong communities beginning with our youngest children.
