The Cadillac Area YMCA seeks to make mission based, character building programs available to all.  Toward this end the Y offers programs at fees generally affordable to the community at large.  Scholarship assistance is available to those needing help with cost.  No one is turned away fromY programs due to inability to pay!

In 2006, 246 individuals received financial help to participate in YMCA programs.  This amounted to 14% of all who took part in Y programs requiring registration.

The Y’s teen outreach saw teen attendance of over 1900 in programs that included afterschool drop-in, Y-Teens Present concerts, sports, and camp.  These programs were made possible through grants and individual Strong Kids donations.

As we begin 2007 we anticipate serving more folks during the year.  We’d like to ask your help in continuing to make Y programs available to everyone.  Please consider a 2007 gift or pledge – in any amount – to support YMCA service and growth during the year.

Your gift will:

• Help keep YMCA program fees affordable
• Provide needed scholarship assistance for those in need
• Provide for YMCA community outreaches like Y-Teens
• Help enable the Y to continue to collaborate with othe agenacies and organizations to meet community needs.
