Y’s Open Doors Program Serves Neighbors in Need

As the nation’s leading nonprofit dedicated to youth development, healthy living and social responsibility, the Y is committed to giving everyone in our community the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive, regardless of their financial circumstances.

The Y is able to provide these opportunities thanks to supporters of the Open Doors program. Open Doors provides financial assistance so deserving individuals can belong to the Y and participate in programs and services that can nurture their kid’s potential, help them improve their health and give back to their community.

Last year, the YMCA of Middle Tennessee provided more than $14 million in charitable subsidies and other forms of financial assistance to kids, adults and seniors throughout Middle Tennessee and southern Kentucky. Such assistance was made possible thanks to generous contributions to the YMCA’s Annual Giving Campaign.

• A deserving child participate in swim lessons, summer camp or youth sports
