Through the Strong Kids Campaign Scholarship Program, the gap between community services and reaching the individuals and families who need it most is filled. Each day, the YMCA opens its doors to all in the community, never turning anyone away from service based on an ability to pay.
As the need continues to grow, our community stands at the threshold of an amazing and exciting future for embracing all. All that is required now is your consideration for support.
The YMCA is dedicated to helping all those who pass through our doors. Inclusive in our services, embracing all abilities, ages, incomes and cultures. The YMCA is a recognized pillar of support for our community.
The YMCA is at the forefront in meeting these challenges. We have the systems in place that can make a difference in someone’s lives.
At the Defiance Area YMCA, one of our most important goals has always been to enrich the lives of kids in our community. But when some are left out, it leaves us all a bit poorer. As a person with vested interest in the future of your community, you can help these kids grow into responsible, successful adults. YMCA activities help children develop valuable skills, gain confidence and build self-esteem. By contributing to the YMCA Strong Kids Campaign, ;you can help us teach these young people such important values as caring, honesty, responsibility and respect.
In 2008 the Defiance Area YMCA provided scholarships totaling $51,960 and made an impact on 412 individuals and families throughout the Defiance Area.
