The true power of the Y is in the hearts and actions of every neighbor

who believes in our vision of a stronger community for all.

Thanks to the generosity of our members, volunteers, and donors, we are able to provide lifesaving swimming lessons, a safe, nurturing space for kids to learn and grow during out of school time, and outreach to families and individuals who are feeling isolated.

Find Your Reason to Give

The Annual Campaign is our yearly fundraising effort. We are a 503C, and donations are tax-deductible. Individuals and corporations can donate or sponsor events. We also accept IRA contributions, legacy donations to our Heritage Club, and other forms of philanthropy. All donations are used to provide services, programs, and memberships to those in our community who need them most.

Financial Assistance Program

We recognize that for our community to succeed, everyone must be given the opportunity to be healthy and confident. The YMCA welcomes all and believes that no one should be denied access to the Y based on their ability to pay. With your help, we are able to provide assistance to youth, adults, and families based on their individual needs and circumstances.

My Why

“CNB National Bank has had a long history of partnering with the Countryside YMCA.  We share the same vision of wanting to make the areas we serve a better place for everyone.  We are fortunate to have them in our community.”

“The Y was there for my daughter and me during COVID and through a divorce. I will never forget the sweet times we had making new friends in the family play gym. And now I work at the YMCA and am blessed to be able to pay it forward to other mamas and their babies.”

Allie Andriacco, Mom & Y Employee
The Young Men's Christian Association

The mission of the YMCA is to put Christian principles into practice that build healthy spirit, mind, and body for all.

We bring that mission to life by identifying the needs of the community and then finding ways we can meet those needs.
