FITNESS & RECREATIONAL PROGRAMS:In the area of Health and Fitness, the Jefferson City Area YMCA offers a wide variety of programs to our community. The programs vary from individual to group formatting for people of all ages. We provide individual settings for over 10,000 children, teen, young adult, adults, and seniors. Over the past year we were able to provide many individuals with various strength, flexibility, and cardiovascular endurance programs based on the participants needs and wants. We offered more than 90 land, water, and specialty aerobic classes that provided exercise for nearly 4,000 participants per month. We also provided over 300 individuals over the age of 55 with modified forms of exercise at 4 off-site locations and 12 on-site programs through our Silver Sneakers program. In addition, we taught over 1,000 children swimming lessons and provided over 5,000 children with the opportunity to participate in various forms of sports activities. Overall, we consider ourselves blessed to have had such a great year and have been given the ability to carry out our mission of building strong kids, families, and communities. Throughout the year, the YMCA donated more than $30,000 worth of YMCA memberships, programs and day passes to area non-profit entities.

CHILD CARE AND CHILD DEVELOPMENT CENTER: School Age Children Program Objectives: To teach and strengthen the YMCA's four core values of respect, responsibility, honesty, and caring. To model positive, healthy lifestyles and habits through positive role models. To support individual diversity and family values. To provide guidance, encouragement, and leadership for area youth. To promote enriching experiences that will strengthen academic development. During the school year, the YMCA operates Y-Care. Y-Care operates for two schools in the morning, and 9 elementary schools after school hours. Y-Care provides children with opportunities to explore art/humanities, science and technology, character development, reading, math, and physical fitness through a variety of hands-on activities at each site and serves as caring role models for children in our programs. During the summer, the YMCA offers summer camp for school-age area children. The program operates daily for the full eleven weeks of summer vacation and provides a safe, fun, and educational place for children to spend their summer. School-age programming has been offered in Jefferson City for 30+ years. School-Age Childcare: Y-Care distributes program evaluations in the spring. Summer camp has one program evaluation. We offer parties to schools with the most evaluations returned. We emailed the survey to parents, resulting in fewer results this year. Our parent survey scores for 2024 overall (1 being the best, and 5 being the worst). 2024-2025 Ycare: 1.7 (79 surveys completed) 2024 Summer Camp: 2.3 (29 surveys completedOur parent survey scores for 2024 overall satisfaction (with 1 being the best, 5 being the worst). Child Development Center: 1.4 (26% surveys completed) Child Development Center: The YMCA Child Development Center is a child care facility that cares for and educates children between the ages of six weeks to five years. The center is Missouri licensed and provides a quality child care setting for children while their parents are at work or school. The center is licensed by the state for 132 children, serving children of various ages and abilities. The objectives of the Child Development Center are to identify and assist all children in the four developmental areas: 1) Social: to help children feel comfortable, trust their environment, form bonds with other adults and children. 2) Emotional: to help children experience pride and self-confidence, develop independence and self-control, and have a positive attitude. 3) Cognitive: to help children become confident learners by giving them opportunities to try out their own ideas and experience success, and by helping them acquire learning skills such as the ability to solve problems, ask questions, and use words to describe their ideas, observations, and feelings. 4) Physical: to help children increase their large and small muscle skills and develop strength and control in these areas. Through the efforts of our staff to care for and educate the children in the center, our goal is to set a foundation for the children to be successful in their future learning at school. The school-age childcare program and the full day childcare program allow parents the opportunity to work while the YMCA provides childcare services for their children. If not for subsidized childcare through the YMCA, parents would stay at home and be dependent on the federal assistance program. One of the populations our programs serve most effectively are single parent families with multiple children. We have many families with 2, 3, even 4 children in our care. The vast majority of these are single mothers who are either working full-time or attending college in an effort to improve their financial situations. Outreach funds make it possible for these families to receive affordable care for children ages 6 weeks through 12 years. No other organization in town serves as many children, or as wide an age range of children, as the YMCA. We believe this ability to help families with a wide range of childcare needs makes us unique and vital to the community. Child Development Center: The Child Development Center sends out annual evaluations to the parents of the center to get their feedback on the strengths and areas of improvement in the center. Evaluations of the children are also conducted three times per year to assess the children's advancement in the four areas of development. The full day care facility began operations in 2000.

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. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Auto-Revocation List
Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.
Publication 78
Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.
These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
