YMCA STRONG KIDS CAMPAIGN

This is Glens Falls YMCA's largest, adult, volunteer program. Held each year for eight weeks, the campaign invites community volunteers to share the YMCA story. Donors are encouraged to give generously in support of our financial assistance program. The financial assistance program offers children, teens, families and individuals the opportunity to benefit from YMCA programs and services that they could not otherwise afford. Funds are distributed on a need based, sliding scale. All the funds raised during the annual campaign go directly to those in need. If you are interested in becoming a donor or volunteer, please contact us at 518-793-3878.

"No one is turned away because of an inability to pay."

ENDOWMENT

The mission of Glens Falls Family YMCA, Board of Trustees is to provide fiscal security and stability for the programs and facilities of the organization. They do this through gifts to the Endowment Fund which helps finance future endeavors, so the Y can continue to build strong kids, strong families and strong communities.

CAPITAL GIFTS

In order to continue to meet a community's need, it is necessary for the YMCA to construct new buildings, renovate or expand existing ones, and purchase the necessary equipment to serve our members. From time to time the Y conducts Capital Campaigns, which are an intensive fund-raising program designed to raise a specified sum of money for a particular use.
Donors have the option of giving a lump sum of money to take advantage of tax savings by pledging a large amount over a number of tax years. They may also specify programs that will receive their gift.
