The Y faced many new challenges over the last two years. While working through these challenges, we learned much about ourselves, our community’s needs, and how we can best meet those needs.

We transformed our spaces to serve our neighbors and friends during the pandemic. We partnered with other community-serving organizations to amplify the Y’s mission, and just as we have always done, we boldly stepped in to meet these challenges head-on. Together, we’ve supported those who need us most.

Many challenges have been overcome in the last two years, and while there are likely more ahead, our Y leadership and staff continue to move forward, serving our members and community. Membership is on the rise, programs are back on track, and fantastic renovations are planned for our Downtown and Express locations, largely thanks to our generous donors. The recent addition of EGYM reminds us that the Y is committed to offering cutting-edge fitness options to members. In short, it’s an exciting time to be a part of the Y family!

We will continue to provide critical programs such as Power Scholars, mitigating the achievement gap to keep our children on grade level, community health programs to address the growing need for healthy living for individuals of all ages and abilities and ensuring that all families and individuals are supported to reach their God-given potential. Whatever it is, we will be here for you and our community.

We invite you to read over the 2022 Annual Report. The accomplishments of the Y are extraordinary, and I believe the best is yet to come.

As they have for over 160 years, the Y will always strive towards lasting personal and social change by working together from all walks of life to invest in our children and neighbors, resulting in a stronger and more integrated community.
