Give. For a better us.

Every day, the Y strengthens our community for kids, adults, seniors and families with programs that protect, teach, connect, heal, nourish and encourage. It’s how we help communities and the ‘us’ who live in them achieve our individual and collective promise.

With our doors open to all, we bring together people from all backgrounds, to support those in need. We take on the most urgent needs in our community and inspire a spirit of service in return. Our members, volunteers, supporters and staff demonstrate the power of what we can achieve by taking action and giving back together.

As the leading nonprofit for youth development, healthy living and social responsibility, the Y works side-by-side with our neighbors every day to make sure that everyone, regardless of age, income or background, has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive. To do our important work, the Y relies on support from members, donors, volunteers and community leaders.

When you are involved with the Y, you help bring about lasting personal and social change. Whether you want to nurture the potential of children and teens, improve your or your family’s health and well-being, or give back and support your neighbors, your involvement with the Y will positively impact those in your community.

How Can I Support the Y?

There are many different ways to support the Y. You can help through financial giving through our Annual Campaign, a capital campaign or our planned giving Heritage Club. You can also give-in-kind, volunteer your time, and give online.

Donate a Car to Your Local YMCA

YMCAs in CT & RI serve their local communities in the areas of Youth Development, Healthy Living, and Social Responsibility. YMCAs provide scholarships for programs, memberships and offer valuable community resources, such as childcare or summer camp, cancer survivor programs, or housing for those most in need. We have partnership with ARS Cars to make it possible for you to easily donate a vehicle to your local YMCA.

Heritage Club

The Central Connecticut Coast YMCA Heritage Club honors those who have made a commitment to provide for the future of your YMCA.
