KNOWing the facts about child sexual abuse can help adults better understand what to look for and how to prevent it. As parents, caregivers, and trusted adults to the young people in our lives, we play an important role in protecting them from abuse. Learn more about the different types of abuse, the signs and how you can help at childhelphotline.org.

In 2023, $150,000 was donated to support families in need through childcare, summer camp, swim lessons and other essential programs. A one-time $50 donation allows a child in your community to learn the importance of swimming and water safety. Give today at ymcaofmewsa.org/give and give the gift of the Y to your neighbor! ❤️

Safe options after school may be limited for some families. 1 in 5 youth do not have someone to care for them after school, which can predispose them to risky behaviors. Youth who participate in high-quality after school programs, like the YMCA, can improve school attendance and test scores, as well as increase positive social behaviors. To ensure that all children have a safe place to go after school, visit ymcaofmewsa.org/give to support a family in your community ❤️

Regular exercise is crucial for maintaining good health, especially as we age. Yet, many seniors may face financial constraints, especially after retirement, and providing reduced rates at the YMCA may be the encouragement or open door they need to remain physically active, which can contribute to improved cardiovascular health, strength, and flexibility. At the YMCA we welcome more than 3,000 seniors each year and many of them can participate thanks to our financial assistance program. To support a senior in your community, visit ymcaofmewsa.org/give ❤️ Thank you for your support!
