Strong Kids Campaign

One of the most important goals at the YMCA is to enrich the lives of everyone in our community. But when individuals are left out, it leaves us all a bit poorer. Reflected in our Mission is the ability to offer financial assistance for membership and programs to those who are unable not unwilling to pay.  By choosing to contribute to the 2008 "Windows to the World " Strong Kids Campaign you are truly making a difference for a child or family that without your support would not experience the quality programs and services the YMCA provides for this community!

Lamplighters' Club

The Lamplighters' task was to light the way - to help people see ahead. Our Lamplighters Club is composed of men and women who believe and have faith in the YMCA's future. They are concerned citizens who have felt and seen the impact of the YMCA on the lives of people. Through becoming Lamplighters - men and women have included the YMCA in their estate plans, having assured the strength and stability of our YMCA for future generations.

The Lamplighters' Club is open to everyone who is interested in the YMCA and it's future viability and chooses to enhance its Endowment Fund.

For more information contact Tami Paulsen, Director of the Endowment Development.
