Press Release

PERTH AMBOY – The YMCA Annual Campaign goes where membership fees don’t. It powers critical programs and activities that keep kids safe, people healthy, and families strong. The Y needs your support to continue to make these services possible. Please donate today for a better us! 

While YMCA membership fees allow the Y to be a gathering place in our community, it is the YMCA Annual Campaign that gives us the power to make that community stronger. When you give to the YMCA’s Annual Campaign you are supporting the varied programs the Y provides outside of our health and wellness activities. 

• YOU NURTURE KIDS. You give them before & after school care, summer day camp, and youth sports. They get a safe place to learn, play, and thrive. 

• YOU SAVE LIVES. You give individuals swim lessons and health and wellness programs. You provide support and opportunities to fight disease and live healthy. 

• YOU KEEP SENIORS YOUNG. You give older adults longevity and healthy aging. They get fitness programs that strengthen their bodies and keep their minds sharp. 

• YOU HELP OTHERS. You give homeless people Hope! You provide prevention support and resources for families in need. 

• YOU SUPPORT FAMILIES. You give scholarships and financial support that make the Y possible. Every child gets a warm welcome and every individual can access programs for health and wellness. No one is ever turned away! 

The Y helps strengthen community bonds and instill a sense of togetherness for all involved. 

The Y understands the importance of learning from one another and helping all of us to reach our fullest potential. Here in Perth Amboy, the Y aims to bring all people together with one common ground this is why every year we solicit funds for the Annual Campaign. These funds make it possible to keep our promise.
