Why the Y?
TIMELESS. Help to lay deep roots to sustain generations of growth. The Y is a stable, values-based and professionally managed organization that is in-touch with the needs of our community and capable of meeting the changing conditions in order to lead our community into the future. Hertitage Club members fill a special need for the Y by providing long-term resources that will benefit our Y's programs in perpetuity. As we look ahead, our Y is preparing for the future by building a permanent, growing endowment through planned giving bequests and other gifts by Heritage Club members.
AGELESS. Invest in your neighbors of all ages so that we might become an even stronger community. Your gifts to River Crossing YMCA help to ensure that everyone, regardless of age, finances, ability or circumstances can access the support they need to live healthy, thriving lives. From the 7th grade initiative to the THRIVE cancer wellness program, the Y is meeting needs across generations.
PRICELESS. Heritage Club membership is the most significant commitment that you can make to our long term mission. It provides the catalyst and resources to ensure the sustainability of our Y and its support to this community. Bequests and other gifts to the endowment by Heritage Club members help to promote the Y's core values of caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility for self and others, along with healthy living, for future generations of children, youth, and adults.
At the Y, strengthening community is our cause--it was in 1965, is now and it will still be in 2050!
