Giving to the YMCA of Metro Chicago is so much more than making a donation. It’s an investment. In our children. In our communities. In our future.
Every gift to the Y helps create new experiences for kids. Builds their self-esteem. Supports their academic success. Ensures they end up in a good place. No matter where they stand.
That’s why our Annual Recognition Dinner on Thursday, October 21, 2021 is so important. Since 2014, this event has raised more than $7 million.
It’s helped so many children succeed. But there are so many more that need us. That need you.
PLEASE JOIN US.
INVEST IN WHAT CAN BE.
