MOBILIZING OUR MISSION

Strengthening our communities. Together.

As we face evolving challenges that impact the health and well-being of our neighbors and community members, the YMCA of the North continues to answer the call to serve.

Simply put, donor support helps make our work possible—fueling our ability to respond, adapt, and lead. Together, we’re strengthening our communities and expanding opportunities for more individuals and families to experience joy, wellness, purpose, and connection through Y programs.

We proudly continue to push what’s possible, challenge limits, and open doors for all.
