In a world that changes so rapidly, the Y has been at the heart of communities for generations. The Y is a reliable, professionally managed organization guided by four core values: caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility. Led by local volunteers, the Y is in touch with our community’s changing needs. A healthy Y capable of making a significant impact in the community is a gift we have received from prior generations. It is a gift we should pass along, in a stronger position, to future generations.
When you give to the Y, your gift will have a meaningful, enduring impact right in your own neighborhood.

Individuals who have made a meaningful gift to the YMCA endowment fund are recognized for their generosity and become members of the Heritage Society. Becoming a member of the Heritage Society requires a commitment, which now, or in the future, will add to the YMCA's Endowment Fund.
Make an immediate donation and take a charitable deduction as provided by law.

Contribute appreciated assets, such as stock, real estate or personal property to the YMCA and receive a charitable deduction equal to the current value of the assets without capital gains tax
Purchase a life insurance policy naming the YMCA as the beneficiary, and take a charitable deduction equal to the premium amount. Several plans are available in which a new policy can be fully paid in a period of five to seven years.
Establish a Charitable Remainder Trust and you receive an immediate, federal income tax deduction for the present value of the assets expected to pass to charity, plus a lifetime payment stream.
