The YMCA Strong Kids Campaign is a massive effort by YMCA volunteers and staff aimed at raising funds to support hopes and dreams, to inspire the positive change we all want to see in the world. All year long, gifts to the Strong Kids Campaign make a true difference in the lives of children and adults who have the need or desire to participate in YMCA programs, but simply cannot afford to do so.

You can invest in a child who is learning to swim, practicing core values in youth sports programs or making new friends at YMCA Camp. Your investment will yield a child who is a little safer, a little wiser and having a lot more fun!

You can give a teen the opportunity to learn leadership skills and build relationships through YMCA teen programs.

You can allow families to have peace of mind by giving them access to the YMCA, a safe, family-oriented place where people of all ages relax, play and connect.

You can share the YMCA with others in the community who can benefit from programs that build healthy spirit, mind and body.

By contributing to the YMCA Strong Kids Campaign, you are making a difference in the life of a child today and in our community for tomorrow.

If you would like to make a donation to our Strong Kids Campaign,visit www.ymcadetroit.orgor call 734.282.9622

Financial assistance helps ensure everyone belongs at the YMCA.
