Donate Now ›“You Make More Possible” Annual Support Campaign
The Edwardsville YMCA’s commitment to stand firm in our mission to impact the lives of others and to never turn away those who are unable to afford the necessary benefits the Y provides. Those benefits include, (but are not limited to) building healthy habits, growing relationships and fellowship with other members and having a safe place for children to learn, grow and thrive.
We believe these to be essential needs for our community; however we alone are unable to fund all the assistance needed to help fulfill the requests that come in every year. Through the generosity of our community’s businesses and individuals, members and staff, donations to the Annual Campaign help to fund our Financial Assistance Program.
The recurring reasons for requesting assistance include: job loss, illness and injury rehabilitation. These continue to increase and as a non-profit, we are committed to helping as many individuals and families as possible.
PLEASE CONSIDER TAKING PART AND HELP THOSE IN NEED.
Contributions to the Annual Campaign will go directly towards helping others through our Financial Assistance Program.
