Mission and programs · 2025

Mission

The mission of the YMCA of Greater Cincinnati is to put Christian principles into practice through programs that build healthy spirit, mind and body for all. Counting members and program participants, the Y reaches more than 114,000 people annually with 10 membership locations, 32 before and after school child care sites in 18 school districts, and three stand alone early learning centers across Hamilton, Highland, Clermont, Boone, Kenton, and Campbell counties. The Y provides programs and services that nurture the potential of individuals and families, promote healthy living and foster a sense of social responsibility. Every day, we work to make sure that everyone, regardless of age, income, or background, has the opportunity to become healthier, more confident, and secure. Financial assistance, supported by our generous Annual Campaign donors and partners, enables the Y to provide membership and program scholarships to more than 30,000 people in the Greater Cincinnati area.

  • Youth Development: Our YMCA is committed to nurturing the potential of every child and teen. We believe that all kids deserve the opportunity to discover who they are and what they can achieve. That is why we help young people cultivate the values, skills and relationships that lead to positive behaviors, better health and educational achievement. Our YMCA programs, such as child care, day and specialty camp programs, resident camp, arts and humanities, and 21st century learning offer a range of experiences that enrich cognitive, social, physical and emotional growth. As one of the largest providers of child development services in the Greater Cincinnati area, the YMCA is acting on its commitment to support family life, as a core education program for the future. Focusing on the diversity of the community, 7 early learning programs, two of which provide infant care, thirteen 21st century learning sites, and 32 before and after school programs together provide a safe, educational, and enriching environment for 2,500 children each week. Like all Y programs, child care is open to all, with financial assistance available. The YMCA provides financial assistance to needy families to help defray the cost of participation. A major portion of the cost of child care program expenses, over related revenue in this area, is covered by government grants and contributions. In 2025, over 1,700 children and teens enjoyed amazing experiences at 9 summer day camp locations including Camp Ernst. An excellent option for working parents, many families find this character-building time as important as a critical source of summer child care. At Camp Ernst, 540 children and teens participated in the Summer Day camp program. Traditional summer overnight camp programs served 3822 children and teens, and non-summer sessions at camp served 422 individuals.

    Expenses $18,927,118 · Revenue $14,212,008

  • Healthy Living : The YMCA is a leading voice on health and well-being. We bring families closer together, encourage good health and foster connections through fitness, sports, fun and shared interests. As a result, people in our community are receiving the support, guidance and resources they need to achieve greater health in spirit, mind and body. This is particularly important as our nation struggles with an obesity crisis, families struggle with work/life balance and individuals search for personal fulfillment. YMCA membership engages over 109,000 individuals annually, providing an inclusive approach to connectedness among families and individuals in our community through youth and adult sports, education, and wellness programming. YMCA programs are open to the general public with options for scholarship funding. A YMCA membership provides access to information, facilities, and programs. The YMCA encourages a healthy lifestyle that connects people for healthier and happier living from family yoga to toddler swim instruction to April Pools Day. The YMCA provided opportunities to develop healthy lifestyles to youth and adults, serving over 6,400 individuals in swim lessons, and 4,300 in youth sports.

    Expenses $17,006,186 · Revenue $17,752,045

  • Social Responsibility : Our YMCA believes in giving back and supporting our neighbors. We have been listening to and responding to our community's most critical social needs. YMCA programs, such as Achievers, Senior programs, and the Y Marketplace food pantry are examples of how we deliver training, resources and support that empower our neighbors to effect change, bridge gaps and overcome obstacles. We engage YMCA members, participants and volunteers in activities that strengthen our community and pave the way for future generations to thrive. Over 4,300 individuals volunteered for the Y, serving over 109,000 hours to strengthen community and support the YMCA. The YMCA Achievers program, a college readiness and career exploration program which provides teens with the essential tools to pursue higher education and to identify different career opportunities, served 60 teens. The YMCA's Music Resource Center provided music production and enrichment activities to 203 youth in the area, and provided approximately 98 music lessons. The YMCA managed and provided programs for four senior centers, serving over 1,600 seniors by supporting their physical, social, and emotional health, as well as offering daily meals and day trips. Leaders Club, a teen character and leadership development program designed to equip teens with the knowledge, training, and experiences to become strong community leaders while fostering a spirit of service and healthy lifestyles in mind, body, and spirit, had 22 participants in 2025.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
