OUR YMCA PROGRAMS, SUCH AS OUR INFANT THRU SCHOOL-AGE CHILD CARE, SERVICE LEARNING, YOUTH SPORTS, YOUTH SWIMMING LESSONS AND SAFETY AROUND THE WATER WEEK AND DAY CAMP, OFFER A RANGE OF EXPERIENCES THAT ENRICH COGNITIVE, SOCIAL, PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL GROWTH.

OUR YMCA COMMITMENT TO STRENGTHENING FAMILIES, RELIEVING THE BURDEN OF BALANCING WORK AND FAMILY, IS INTERWOVEN IN OUR CHILDCARE PROGRAMS, MAKING IT POSSIBLE FOR PARENTS OF THE CHILDREN TO REMAIN GAINFULLY EMPLOYED OR COMPLETE THEIR EDUCATION FOR A FUTURE CAREER, KNOWING THAT THEIR CHILDREN ARE THRIVING IN A SAFE, DEVELOPMENTALLY APPROPRIATE AND SUPPORTIVE ENVIRONMENT. IN 2024, 210 CHILDREN PARTICIPATED IN OUR INFANT/TODDLER, PRESCHOOL, AND IN OUR SUMMER SCHOOL AGE PROGRAM. IN ADDITION, WE PROVIDE ASSISTANCE AND SUPPORT TO AT RISK CHILDREN WHO NEED HELP DUE TO FAMILY VIOLENCE, SUBSTANCE ABUSE, ETC., INCLUDING PROVIDING CRISIS CHILD CARE SERVICES, BY COLLABORATING WITH A VARIETY OF SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCIES.

As filed on the 2024 return.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

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. 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.
