YMCA Buffalo Niagara has hit the midway point of its Annual Campaign journey noting it is 74.8% to its overall goal of $725,000.  The organization, comprised of eight branches and the Association office is seeking the communities support in reaching its target by April 19, 2016.

With the communities support the Y can continue to make programs and services accessible to those who need them.  100% of gifts are tax deductible.  Last year the Y awarded over $1 million dollars in financial assistance to nearly 3,000 families.

To make a contribution to the Y’s annual campaign visit ymcabn.org/support-the-y/donate/ or call your local Y today!

Locally founded in 1852, YMCA Buffalo Niagara is a charitable, community based organization committed to providing programs designed to build a healthy spirit, mind, and body for all. The YMCAs focus on youth development, healthy living and social responsibility is reflected in the variety of programs that we offer for all ages and abilities. Additionally, collaborations with insurance carriers such as Univera, Independent Health, and BlueCross BlueShield provide the opportunity for those wanting to take the first step toward a healthier lifestyle to do so at the YMCA.

A not for profit organization, YMCA Buffalo Niagara serves over 100,000 people annually through the seven branches located throughout Western New York, its resident camp YMCA Camp Weona, and over 40 community based program sites. This tremendous outreach would not be possible without the support of our volunteers and community partners.

Dr. Bob's sixth step for aging stronger after 60 is protected sleep: a consistent bedtime, screens down before bed, and dim red night lights that won't suppress melatonin. The motion-activated lights also light the path to the bathroom, helping prevent the falls that put older adults at risk of hip fractures.
