At the YMCA, one of our most important goals has always been to enrich the lives of the children and families in the communities we serve. But when some are left out, it leaves us all a bit poorer, because giving families a safe and nurturing place to go benefits everyone. By introducing kids and teens to experiences that will help them grow into responsible successful adults, we make the community we love a better place to live.
The Peninsula Metropolitan YMCA and all its branches are committed to providing high quality, affordable programs in a Christian environment. Programs, services and facilities are available regardless of a family or individual's ability to pay the standard membership and program fees. If you want to participate at the YMCA and feel you are not financially able to do so, please apply to our Guardian Program. We do not want you or your family to be excluded from the benefits that the YMCA has to offer.
how to apply Applying for the Guardian Program is completely confidential. Your application will be reviewed by a YMCA director at your branch. Scholarships are based on an applicant's income and are limited by the space available at the time of application. You may pick up an application at any branch to complete and return to your location of choice. Please allow a minimum of one week for processing the application. items you will need to include
Each year the YMCA asks for contributions to the Strong Communities Campaign. The donated funds help the YMCA to provide a wide range of programs, activities and membership for children and families who could not otherwise afford the cost of these programs. As a 501(c)(3) charitable non-profit organization, the YMCA is dedicated to being available to everyone in our community. This is why we began the Strong Communities Campaign. The YMCA holds special events like our annual Golf Classic, Hawaiian Luau, and Festival of the Trees to make the job of fundraising a little more fun. If you are interested in contributing, attending an event, or volunteering to spread the story of the YMCA, please call your nearest YMCA. Only with your help can we provide more children and families with a safe and nurturing place to grow. |
