strong kids campaign

Strength in numbers.

The YMCA of Greater Fort Wayne is a non-profit organization committed to strengthening the foundations of our community, one child at a time. Our annual Strong Kids Campaign is a Y initiative that provides scholarships for programs and memberships to children and families in need. It is our policy that no one be turned away due to the inability to pay. Funds provided through the Fort Wayne Y’s Strong Kids Campaign remain in our community and are made available to local youth, families and adults.

Your gift matters.

Your contribution to the Strong Kids Campaign is 100% tax deductible and goes right to work in our very own neighborhoods:

• 1 in 5 program participants or members benefit from this campaign.
• 3 dollars are put back into our community for every dollar donated.
• 1 in 4 children in our childcare program receive financial aid, giving them a safe place to go.
• 99 percent of at-risk youth in our Youth Service Bureau programs avoid the juvenile justice system.
• 1 in 10 kids attending summer day camp utilize scholarships and are able to build new friendships.

If the future of our children matters to you, please invest in them with a gift to our Strong Kids Campaign.
