WHAT WILL YOUR LEGACY BE?

Could you be the...

Grandparent, 

who is compelled to donate after seeing how YMCA summer camp helped their grandson unplug from technology and energized him to become engaged with the environment 

Retired teacher, 

who spent their career inspiring at-risk youth to stay in school, and contributed to the Y because they saw how YMCA programs helped keep kids engaged and become leaders in their community

Doctor, 

who was inspired to give a portion of his retirement assets after witnessing a patient embrace exercise and healthy living to defeat chronic illness 

Kind stranger, 

whose bequest saves a child's life from drowning because his parents received financial assistance that allowed them to send their son to swim lessons
