Please Donate to the YMCA

You can help...

By giving to the YMCA of Hamilton/Burlington/Brantford you are building a stronger and healthier community for all people. In our communities, populations up to 25% live below the poverty line and unfortunately this means having to do without many of the services that many of us take for granted. By giving to the YMCA you help remove financial barriers and open doors for all people to participate in health, recreation and life-building activities, regardless of financial circumstance. At the YMCA we believe this makes us all stronger.

Your support can leave a lasting impact. You can help...

  • A child learn how to swim, a skill which could one day save their life and it builds confidence, independence and a healthy lifestyle
  • A newcomer youth get comfortable in their new hometown through access to services that help them navigate a new way of life and make them feel they belong
  • A single-mother gain some relief because her child is safe in a positive, supportive before and after school program while she works
  • A young person gain the tools they need to combat peer pressure and build their self-esteem at YMCA Leader Corps
  • A teen build skills and values that will help them find meaningful employment in the future
  • A young camper build valuable leadership skills and independence while having fun
