Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Greater Somerset County YMCA is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) public charity dedicated to strengthening community by helping all individuals discover their potential, purpose, and connection to others. (Continued on Schedule O)

Activities or mission (Part I)

To cultivate an inclusive and dynamic community through programs that promote social connections and inspire individuals to realize their unique potential.

  • YOUTH DEVELOPMENT: Nurturing the potential of every child and teen: Youth Development is a key area of impact for our organization. Greater Somerset County YMCA offers programs that help young people of all ages to develop the skills and characteristics necessary to thrive. Children in our programs learn the importance of the Y's core values: caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility. In 2024, we served over 9,400 children between 0-17 years of age. Through a broad range of programs and services, we support families and promote positive youth development. Our YMCAs offer quality Child Care, Early Childhood Education, After School Care, Summer Camps, Adventure Guides, Family Fitness, Youth Running Clubs, Youth Group Exercise Classes, Saturdays in Motion, Homework Help and Tutoring, Teen Programs, and more. We consistently support families through services addressing academic enrichment, swim lessons, and family bonding activities. All youth programs are designed to promote core values, deepen family connections, and support children and teens in realizing their full potential. 'We are committed to providing safe, supportive environments where all children can learn, grow, and thrive year-round.' - Child Care and Summer Camp Child Care is one of our largest program areas. We offer Infant Care and Preschool (ages 3 months to 5 years) and Before & After School Care (ages 5 - 11 years). Over 200 children are enrolled in our state licensed full-day Child Care and Early Education Centers located at our Hillsborough YMCA and Somerset Hills YMCA branches. Our School Age Child Care programs served nearly 1,000 children across 14 school districts, offering homework help, enrichment, and social-emotional learning. In 2024, over $412,000 in financial assistance supported families in accessing quality Child Care services. One in ten children received scholarship support. We also offer vacation care for children during school breaks. In 2024, over 750 children participated in this offering. Summer Camp is one of the Y's signature programs. In summer 2024, over 1,750 children and teens participated in our traditional camp program, with $562,000 in financial assistance awarded to 421 campers. Camps included outdoor education, archery, gardening, and nature exploration. Camp programs provided critical support to families experiencing homelessness and included trauma-informed care and inclusive programming for children with special needs. These services are aligned with our obligations under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Twenty-three children without permanent homes were enrolled in camp. Camp Dragonfly, with trauma-informed staff, served 21 children coping with grief or trauma. This program was offered at no cost to participants as part of our commitment to inclusive, trauma-informed support. An inclusive environment welcomed 94 children with special needs. Enrollment and participation are based on individual need and program eligibility, without regard to race, sex, or ethnicity, in compliance with federal law and Executive Order 14151. 'We believe in the potential of teens.' - Youth and Teen Development A growing number of pre-teens and teens benefit from Y programs such as Service Learning Projects, Teen Social Activities, and collaborative programs with area schools and other service providers. Our Accept, Compete, Excel (ACE) program is designed to reduce chronic absenteeism from school. The program supports students in grades 8-12 who are most at risk of falling behind. In 2024, 43 students built positive relationships with volunteer mentors, gaining support in social-emotional learning, attendance, and academic performance. The Y Achievers program, a no-cost career and college readiness initiative, empowered 26 high school students to pursue academic and professional goals through weekly sessions, internship guidance, and college tours. Teens also participated in our Counselor in Training program, where over 120 youth developed leadership skills by assisting with camp activities. Our Student Advocate program engaged 24 high school students with Y board members and staff, building confidence and leadership through project work and governance exposure. Greater Somerset County YMCA is one of the largest teen employers in the region. In 2024, 407 employees between the ages of 15 and 19-38% of our workforce-gained foundational job skills at the Y. We believe that a connected family is a healthy family. Parent-child programs and family events help strengthen bonds. Our volunteer-led Saturdays in Motion Program, now in its 32nd year, is the nation's longest-running non-public recreational program for children with autism. In 2024, over 180 children and 180 teen volunteers participated. This one-on-one model supports leadership skills in youth and offers respite for caregivers. To help protect children in our community, we participated in the April 2024 Five Days of Action campaign to raise awareness and prevention around child sexual abuse. Throughout the year, we also hosted events designed to strengthen family life-ranging from parenting seminars on mental health and vaping, to cultural events, to family nights with games and wellness activities.

    Expenses $10,360,424 · Grants $1,014,931 · Revenue $9,075,069

  • HEALTHY LIVING: Improving the health and well-being of our communities: Our YMCAs provide a range of health and wellness services, including group exercise, personal training, swimming, yoga, and stress/nutrition management. These programs promote balance of spirit, mind, and body. Our wellness programs remove barriers so individuals can pursue healthy lifestyles. In 2024, nearly 12,600 adults participated. We believe everyone should learn to swim to promote safety. In 2024, over 5,700 children and 300 adults enrolled in swim lessons. Swim classes increased 14% for children and 136% for adults over the previous year. We offered our no-cost Safety Around Water program in May and expanded it throughout the year to schools and camps. 680 individuals participated. Swim curriculum was integrated into Franklin Township and Manville school districts' physical education. We also offer Special Olympics and inclusive aquatics programs for individuals with special needs. These offerings are compliant with ADA standards to ensure accessible and inclusive participation. Our chronic disease wellness programs served nearly 400 adults. Programs included EnhanceFitness for arthritis, LIVESTRONG at the YMCA for cancer survivors, Total Parkinson's, and the CDC's Diabetes Prevention Program. Our Memory Cafe provided support for caregivers and those with dementia. Our staff also conducted well-being checks with 470 seniors to combat isolation. In 2024, nearly 115,000 adults engaged in fitness programming.

    Expenses $9,976,960 · Grants $613,046 · Revenue $13,171,346

  • SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY: Giving back and providing support to our neighbors: As a cause-driven organization, the Y promotes community well-being through financial assistance, volunteerism, and partnerships. We engage broadly with community stakeholders to maximize impact. We place emphasis on individuals and families facing economic hardship or barriers to access. We provided over 158,000 meals through food distribution programs and maintained community gardens. We also offered "Little Free Pantries" stocked with essentials. We partnered with the Red Cross for 17 blood drives, collecting 501 pints of blood. In 2024, we expanded our community partnerships to include over 120 organizations. We provided free facility use to schools, emergency responders, and nonprofits. Over 1,000 volunteers donated 3,491 hours, valued at over $1,016,000. Volunteers supported governance, programming, and community outreach. Our arts programs encourage creativity and personal expression, supporting cognitive development and social-emotional growth in youth. Programs are open to all individuals regardless of background, and admission is based on interest and age-appropriate criteria. Participation in our programs for individuals with disabilities is guided by principles of inclusion and accessibility, consistent with the ADA. We aim to unite individuals across age groups and life experiences to build shared community benefit. Greater Somerset County YMCA complies with all applicable federal laws and executive orders, including Executive Order 14151 ("Ending Radical and Wasteful Government DEI Programs and Preferencing") and Executive Order 14173 ("Ending Illegal Discrimination and Restoring Merit-Based Opportunity"). Program participation is based on need and eligibility, without preference based on race, sex, or ethnicity.

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.
