At the Y, our Cause is to strengthen the foundations of community. We do this through membership and programs; however, while these fees allow us to cover operations and overhead, they do not cover all the costs to support vital community programs. To ensure no one is denied a chance to participate because of inability to pay, we truly need your help.
Your participation in our campaigns and sponsorship programs are vital in continuing the YMCA of Honolulu’s commitment to these projects. It allows the YMCA to better serve more communities on the island and reach more people on Oahu. We thank you for your help in these areas:
