Capital District YMCA Annual Campaign Update: Let's Get It Done
On January 7, leaders from the Capital District YMCA met to review where we stand with this year’s Annual Campaign. The good news: we’ve already raised $1.4 million toward our $2 million goal. This is a big milestone, and it speaks to the hard work of our team and the generosity of our supporters.
But there’s more to do. We’ve got three months left to raise the final $600,000.
Why It Matters:
Last year, every dollar we raised—AND MORE—went back into programs that make a real difference in people’s lives:
- Childcare and summer camp scholarships that gave kids a safe place to learn and grow.
- Scholarships for our Black and Latino Achievers, helping young people achieve their goals.
- Food relief programs for refugees, offering meals to families who needed them most.
- No-cost chronic disease management programs, helping folks manage their health.
- No-cost Y memberships for kids with life-threatening illnesses and their families, providing a sense of normalcy during tough times.
These are just some of the ways we help—and why hitting this year’s goal is so important.
