Reach More People with Planned Giving

As you build your legacy, think about the number of people you can help at the Tampa YMCA. Most monetary donations go toward scholarships for memberships as well as programs like summer camp, before and after school care and swim lessons. Everyone is welcome at the Y, and donations like yours help those who want to join and participate receive rates they can manage.

Help the Tampa Y continue our cause-driven mission well into future by planning your gift and receive a financial benefit. Planned gifts enable you to arrange contributions in ways that maximize your personal objectives while minimizing your after-tax cost.

Your bequest or beneficiary designation for the Tampa Y in your will, trust, retirement plan or life insurance policy is a gift will keep giving and making a positive impact in the community. Support the mission and programs that you believe in long after your lifetime. Together, we can strengthen our community for generations.

Those who make a bequest to the Tampa Y are honored as Heritage Society members.

The Impact of Your Donation

Many donors who plan gifts to the Y choose a location or program they have a personal connection to.

Programs like summer camp, Before & After School Enrichment and LIVESTRONG® at the YMCA often need funds to offer scholarships to individuals and families. The Tampa Y also offers scholarship for memberships for community members to join the Y and engage in exercise, swimming, child watch while parents work out or socialize and more. 

Some donors wish to provide children with the same summer camp opportunities their family received. Others give to swim programs to help people of all ages learn important, life-saving swim lessons.

If it's important to you to give back to an organization that impacts your community, the Tampa Y is an organization of people who are welcoming, supportive and kind. If the Y has made an impact on your life, consider giving the same opportunities to future generations so we all can be happier, healthier and connected to one another. 

Work with your professional advisors to determine the best planned giving options for you, your family and your philanthropic intentions.
