“Healthy living: the y is a leading voice on health and well-being. We bring families closer together, encourage good health and foster connections through fitness, sports, fun and shared interests. As a result, in 2013, nearly 7,000 people in our community received the support, guidance, and resources they needed to achieve greater health in spirit, mind and body. This is particularly important as our nation struggles with an obesity crisis, families struggle with work/life balance, and individuals search for personal fulfillment. Our programs are accessible, affordable, and open to all faiths, backgrounds, abilities, and income levels. In 2013, we provided 210,857 in financial assistance to people who otherwise would have faced economic barriers to participation. Social responsibility: our ymca believes in giving back and supporting our neighbors. We have been listening and responding to our community's most critical social needs for 156 years. Y programs such as freedom tour; community swim; healthy kids day; pre-k programs such as c.h.o.i.c.e.s. (children having opportunities in early collaborative settings) and hepa (healthy eating and physical activity standards) for early childhood and after school programs, livestrong at the y, and military one source, are examples of how we deliver training, resources, and support that empower our neighbors to effect change, bridge gaps, and overcome obstacles. In 2013, we engaged nearly 7,000 ymca members, participants and volunteers in activities that strengthen our community and pave the way for future generations to thrive. During 2013 the ymca was able to serve 6,823 participants with 360 volunteers donating 28,413 hours. The ymca awarded 210,857 to 1,465 scholarship participants.”
