Major Activities

Activity 2

Healthy Living-With a commitment to being accessible for people of all ages, abilities, backgrounds and incomes we serve over 60,000 members and program participants with services and programs that build health of spirit, mind and body for all. As the nations health crisis increases access to programs that improve health and well-being are essential to creating healthy communities. Through programs such as our Partnership Program where volunteers partner with individuals having disabilities, Family Workout where children ages 7 and up exercise along side their parents or through our transition programs such as Arthritis Aquatics, Cardiac Care or Diabetes Prevention create safe, supportive, caring environments where healthy living is attainable.

Activity 3

Social Responsibility-As a cause-driven organization our purpose is strengthening our communities. Through the development of partnerships and collaborations with other community organizations we work to identify and respond to community needs. At the Germantown Neighborhood Center programs such as the Womens Domestic Advocacy Network, Family Emergency Fund and Food Pantry which is currently serving over 1400 individuals monthly, provide essential services, programs and necessities to break the cycle of generational poverty and abuse. Through our Volunteer Program we engage over 700 volunteers to provide assistance with governance on our boards, committees, programs and services. Additionally, our Annual Support Campaign has over 750 fundraising volunteers who help to raise over $1.2 million dollars for scholarships and financial assistance. These funds help to break down barriers as we strive to ensure that no child, teen, adult or senior is excluded from participating in our programs or services regardless of their ability to pay.
