Our YMCA Annual Fund makes it possible for children, families and adults to experience the Y and its life-changing programs. Your gift to the Y will be used to provide scholarship assistance for those who cannot otherwise afford to buy a membership, to attend camp, or participate in healthy Y programs. Your help supports other programs and services that are vital to the YMCA mission.

Where Does the Y Get its Reach?
More than 170 children and adults have received financial assistance this past year, opening the doors for senior memberships at the Y, school-aged Child Care, family membership and camperships to Camp Norwich. We need your continued support to keep the Y accessible for all.

Where Does the Y Get its Strength?
Strength comes in many forms: muscle, longevity, resilience, support. At the Hampshire Regional YMCA we are blessed to have them. Strength is not just about financial support, though that sure helps. The strength of the Y comes from our staff, our volunteers and members, all dedicated to the health and growth of all in our community.

Where Does the Y Get its Flexibility?
The Y provides a healthy, safe, and fun option for adults and children alike. The experiences of exercising, building strength and endurance, and self esteem at the Y undoubtedly carry over for children into their schools and neighborhoods. The Y is truly helping to build healthy bodies, minds and communities.

Where Does the Y Get its Endurance?
The Hampshire Regional YMCA has been at the center of community life in the Greater Northampton area for 127 years. Imbued with the national YMCA’s core values of caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility, the Hampshire Regional Y has worked tirelessly to be a mission-focused, member-involved organization serving the best interests of its constituents.
