YEAR END

LEADING
WITH LOVE

As we approach the end of another year, we are reminded of how thankful we are to do the work we do.

Every time we congratulate a child who has just learned to swim or an adult who has tried their first class, we are encouraged by the potential and purpose within us all. We are amazed by the dedication of volunteers who pack food, the growth of teens into leaders, the bond between seniors who become family to one another, and the kind-hearted people like you who step up to answer the call for help and make all of this possible.

Our community has pressing needs. Let us support each other to create a positive change.

 

During this season of giving, we are asking for your financial investment. Your generosity will assist us in our continuous efforts to: 

  • Provide staff with critical training, allowing them to respond to the growing mental health struggles facing our children 
  • Allow us to continue to feed those in our community who are struggling to keep food on the table 
  • Supply access to essential, life-saving skills through our Safety Around Water and swim lessons for more children 
  • Provide financial assistance to community members; ensure everyone can access our programs and services, regardless of their ability to pay 

The power of the Y is in the hearts and actions of every neighbor who believes in our vision of a better “us” and a stronger community for all.  

When you invest in the Y, you help people right here in your neighborhood and throughout the greater Portland/Vancouver region. Together, with friends like you, we can ensure kids, families, and seniors have the support they need to thrive. Thank you for supporting our Y!
