Quincy Family YMCA

About Us: Empowering Community. Inspiring Change.

For over 170 years, the Quincy Family YMCA has been more than a place — it’s been a promise. A promise to nurture youth, strengthen families, promote healthy living, and ensure that every person — regardless of age, background, or income — has a place to belong.

Today, that promise continues. The Y remains at the heart of our community, building bridges between neighbors, generations, and experiences — and evolving to meet the needs of today and tomorrow.

Why Give? Because Your Gift Builds More Than a Building — It Builds a Better Quincy

Your support of our Annual Campaign fuels critical services and bold growth. Every dollar helps sustain and strengthen the life-changing work we do — while also moving us forward in exciting new ways.

Your gift helps us:

• Support youth development, from early learning to after-school care and leadership programming,

• Promote healthy living for all ages and abilities — physically, mentally, and emotionally,

• Invest in facility and structural updates that create safe, modern, welcoming spaces for everyone, and

• Launch and grow expanded and extended programming and wellness offerings to better serve the evolving needs of our community.

This campaign isn’t just about maintaining what we have — it’s about building what our community needs next.

Your Impact Is Measurable — And Meaningful

When you give, you help a child gain confidence, a family find connection, a senior feel strong again, and a community come together in a place built on purpose.

From scholarships that remove financial barriers, to upgraded facilities that support dignity and inclusion, to innovative programming that fosters well-being, your generosity touches every life we serve.

Join Us in Strengthening the Y — and Quincy

The Y is a powerful force for good — but we don’t do this work alone. It’s only possible with the support of donors like you who believe in building up people, programs, and places that matter.

Be the difference. Be the momentum. Be the reason someone finds hope, strength, and a brighter future.
