The Y Is Us
The YMCA of the Fox Cities is more than a place to work out — it is a cause. Every day, we work side-by-side with our neighbors to make sure that everyone, regardless of age, income or background, has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive. Your membership, your giving, your time — all of it comes together to strengthen the foundation of this community. We believe that lasting change happens when people invest in each other, and that is exactly what the Y is all about.
Making a Difference Together
The Y’s impact is felt in every corner of the Fox Cities. From the families who receive financial assistance through Membership for All to the neighbors who find connection and purpose through our programs, the ripple effect of your support is real.
Volunteer. Give. Belong.
The Y’s mission comes alive because of people like you. Whether you give your time as a volunteer, donate to our Mission in Action Campaign or simply show up for your community, you are part of something bigger. The Y is a place where neighbors take care of neighbors, where children grow into leaders and where no one has to face life’s challenges alone. We invite you to get involved and experience the difference you can make.
Common Questions About Community Impact
Eligibility for financial assistance will be determined after a review of your application, and the length of assistance will be reviewed every 6–12 months. The YMCA reserves the right to request financial documentation and to accept only qualifying applicants. No one is turned away — we will always find a way to make membership or program participation possible.
The Mission in Action Campaign is our annual fundraising effort that provides financial assistance for memberships and programs to children and families in need throughout the Fox Cities. Your gift directly ensures that everyone has the opportunity to belong to the Y.
