Giving
The Boonslick Heartland YMCA counts on the community for support, through time offered as volunteer work or through monetary donations. Through our Annual Support Campaign, Partners With Youth, we raise funds to help support our Financial Assistance program, which provides assistance to low income families on membership dues, child care, youth sports and other programs. All donations made to Partners With Youth stay in the Boonslick Heartland community, and help us help the children and families that support us and make us who we are.
If you would like to donate to our Partners With Youth campaign, you may visit the Welcome Desk at the Boonslick Heartland YMCA, or call and speak with our Member Engagement Director, Tammy Huntsperger. Thank you for your support, and for helping us help others. Please visit our Partners with Youth campaign tab located under the "Social Responsibility" tab at the top of the website for more information and updates as to how much has been raised!
