Volunteering
is a demonstration of caring for others. You’ll find
it at the heart of the YMCA. No matter what your special
talents, interest and schedule are, you can help change
someone’s life at the YMCA. The Y offers people a chance
to get involved in community life by running programs,
making policies, raising money and solving neighborhood
problems. By giving time to others volunteers also give
themselves a chance to learn, grow and have fun.
Endowment
Fund
The Harrison County YMCA has been around since 1966
and continues to touch the lives of many youth, adults,
families and senior citizens. Youth is a time when values
are learned and developed. It's a time when the importance
of honesty, courage, self-reliance and cooperation,
values that carry over into adulthood and beyond, are
learned. These values are part of the heritage of the
Harrison County YMCA Since youth is a time of promise,
that promise can be fulfilled through programs and services
for young and for the young at heart. A gift to the
YMCA's Endowment Fund can ensure a promising future
for children of all ages. Endowment income will become
increasingly more important in the YMCA's future. The
continuing growth and development of the YMCA is the
responsibility of area residents who are the guardians
of the Y's high ideals: ideals of honesty, integrity,
courage, vision and faith. The cost of maintaining and
operating YMCA programs and facilities, which help to
build these ideals has increased over the years. Presently,
most of the Y's income comes through annual donations,
fees, and United Way appropriations. To ensure fiscal
stability, an Endowment Fund has been established. As
the Endowment Fund grows, so will the security of the
YMCA's future. The size of a gift cannot be measured
in dollars. The value will also continue to compound.
This will multiply the numbers of people who can be
reached by the YMCA. Anyone who contributes to the YMCA
Endowment und becomes a member of the "YMCA Heritage
Club". One can become a member of the Heritage Club
by making a cash donation, by including the YMCA is
a will or by establishing a charitable trust. It you
make a contribution to the YMCA Endowment Fund, please
notify the YCMA so that your name can be added to the
"YMCA Heritage Club" roster.
