Every Child and Teen is Resilient
If you don’t spend much time around kids, you may not know this. We have a widespread anxiety problem, especially in teenagers. They feel that the world is moving fast, and that they are ill-equipped to handle all . . .
Y story. About half of those stories have to do with a camp experience for either themselves or their child.
When you donate to the YMCA annual campaign, you help to fund the programs that bridge the gap for the next generation. They can become adults with skills and confidence rather than worry and helplessness.

At a stadium, the seats are in rows facing the field so people can pay attention to the game. At a concert, they’re in rows facing the stage so people can pay attention to the show. At a movie theater, they’re in rows facing the screen so people can pay attention to the movie. At a church, they’re in rows facing the pulpit so people can pay attention to the service.

Thanks to the annual campaign, lack of funds doesn’t have to be a barrier for them to get it. The annual campaign allocates a substantial amount of funding to financial assistance for both membership and programs (like swim lessons and camp).
The health of our community matters, and the Y’s annual campaign doesn’t want someone’s job or zip code to prevent them from getting what they need to make our community a place where everyone is healthier. Please consider donating today. Give.ymcatriangle.org/fundra…
