How to Help

"Changing the Odds" Community Support Campaign
As a non-profit cause-driven organization, the Tampa Metropolitan Area YMCA raises funds annually through our annual giving to provide financial assistance to those who might not otherwise be able to afford the cost of membership and programs.
 
The Tampa YMCA relies on the generosity of donors to keeps its programs effective and affordable as well as to create new programs in response to community identified needs. The Tampa YMCA is the largest provider of family health, youth sports, summer camp, and licensed child care in Hillsborough County. Many of these programs would not be possible were it not for the contributions from supporters like you.
 
In 2012, the Tampa YMCA provided more than $7,913,220 in financial assistance and subsidies to more than 40,800 children, teens, families, and individuals so that they could enjoy memberships at their local Y branches and participate in a myriad of sports, wellness, and other activities. Including additional financial assistance to specific groups, as well as free community programs and use of our facilities by community and nonprofit groups.
 
When a Tampa YMCA volunteer calls you, please consider making a financial donation or even a pledge to support the YMCA’s important work of building strong kids and adults, strong families, and strong communities throughout Hillsborough and East Pasco Counties.
