Your gift stays right here in Gaston County
Every gift to the Gaston County Family YMCA goes to work close to home, at our Cherryville, McGill and Warlick Family YMCAs. Your support opens the door for a child to learn to swim, a teen to find a place to belong, a family to afford summer camp and a cancer survivor to feel strong again.
We are a nonprofit, and we believe no one should miss out on the Y because of cost. Your generosity is what keeps that promise.
What your gift makes possible
The Y strengthens community through three areas of impact. Your gift supports all three, and financial assistance makes sure every neighbor can take part.
For Youth Development
Empowering young people to reach their full potential. Your gift sends kids to afterschool and summer camp, teaches lifesaving Safety Around Water skills and gives teens a place to lead and belong.
For Healthy Living
Improving individual and community well-being. Your gift helps cancer survivors regain strength through LIVESTRONG at the YMCA and keeps older adults active, connected and steady on their feet.
For Social Responsibility
Providing support and inspiring action in our communities. Your gift funds financial assistance and summer meals, so cost and hunger never stand between a neighbor and the Y.
Every gift counts
Our staff, Board of Directors, members and local businesses give to the Y because they see the difference every day. Whether you give $10 or $10,000, your gift becomes a first swim, a new friend or a healthier tomorrow for someone in our community.
Everything we do is guided by our core values: caring, honesty, respect and responsibility.
