Strong Kids

At the YMCA, one of our most important goals has always been to enrich the lives of our community. The Strong Kids program subsidises program and membership fees with scholarships for people who otherwise cannot afford them. No one is ever turned away from the YMCA due to financial reasons.

We can do more — with your help
We want to continue to be a gathering place and center for our communities. Our strengths are to bring people together in a caring atmosphere and to build strong kids, strong families and strong communities. The YMCA enriches lives through our programs and services. But we depend on you to make that possible.

Through the generousity of members like you, the YMCA of the Upper Main Line is looking to continue to fund scholarships for summer camp, child care and preschool or to provide individuals with special needs access to our facilities and programs.

To contribute to our Strong Kids campaign, please contact our Director of Development, Debbie Cornell Naughton at 610-249-9622, ext. 2318 or debbie.naughton@umly(dot)org.

Capital Campaign

The YMCA of the Upper Main Line faces an exciting challenge: How can we continue to meet the demand from our growing communities and membership?

The answer involves renovating, reconfiguring, expanding, and possibly relocating some of our facilities. At the Upper Main Line Branch, the facilities and the mansion, in particular, require significant maintenance and have become expensive to operate. In addition, we’ve reached the building’s physical limits in terms of accessibility and space. At the Lionville Branch, we’re out of space and lack some basic facilities and programs typically offered at a Y, for example, a gymnasium for youth sports and adult wellness activities. Also, membership is increasing each year at a rate faster than we can adequately serve.
