By including the YMCA in your planned giving, you can be confident that your gift will be used to enable the YMCA to continue to serve children, families, and individuals of all ages for years to come.

Future Fund contributions are invested, protecting the pricipal, while the investment income is used to support YMCA programming and maintain upgrading the facilities.
The YMCA takes seriously the trust our donors place in us. How a particular donor chooses to make a gift varies; whether an immediate or planned gift, all that is necessary is a commitment to the YMCA's Endowment. To ensure your gift supports your estate and financial needs, the YMCA encourages donors to discuss contributions with their family, legal and/or financial advisors.
