Our community continues to evolve and faces new challenges each year. The Y has transformed these challenges into opportunities, and as we enter 2024, we are prepared to continue adapting and positively impacting our community’s ever-evolving needs. You can help hundreds of kids, families, and individuals be part of the Y family in ways that enrich their lives.
Your power of generosity is a vital resource for us. You play a crucial role in our journey by remaining connected and supporting others. As a non-profit, our YMCA relies on contributions from our community to operate various programs and services that enrich the lives of parents, families, and individuals.
Impact of Your Contribution
The Unicoi County Family YMCA urgently needs your support to renovate our pool. Built-in the early 1970s, our pool’s equipment is over 50 years old, leading to significant issues and rendering it out of operation since December 2023. To bring it back to life, we require a complete renovation. The estimated cost for this essential work is over $800,000.
Impact of Your Contribution
In partnership with the school system, we are committed to providing swim lessons to all second graders in our community. At the Y, we believe swimming is a crucial life skill, and our swim lessons aim to equip individuals of all ages with confidence and safety in the water. Your donation will directly support this important cause, helping us to continue providing these life-saving lessons. Swimming can improve health for people with diabetes and heart disease. People can exercise longer in water than land without increased effort or joint and muscle pain. Our water-based group fitness classes help people with arthritis and decrease pain in those who suffer from osteoarthritis.
Your donation, no matter the size, would significantly contribute to our goal and help ensure that our community has access to a safe and modern aquatic facility. Every contribution makes a difference, and we sincerely appreciate your support, which will save lives, improve health, and foster a sense of community well-being. Your generosity, big or small, is deeply valued and will make a lasting impact on our community.
Together, let’s make a splash and bring our pool back to life for the benefit of our entire community. Thank you for considering our request and your commitment to the Unicoi County Family YMCA. Please visit the Y or ucfymca.org to contribute.
