The Metropolitan YMCA of the Oranges uses charitable donations in four ways: the YMCA Financial Assistance Fund, Program Initiatives, General Operating Support, and Capital Projects.

YMCA Financial Assistance Fund
This fund provides direct financial assistance to deserving children and families who otherwise would not be able to participate in our programs. Through this fund, our Y delivers on its promise “Our Y does not turn anyone away because of their inability to pay for programs and services.”


Last year, over $1,000,000 was awarded to over 3,800 children and families for:


Child or Family Memberships
 Reduced or waived program fees
 Childcare Tuition Assistance
 Summer Day and Sleep away “Camper”ship

General Operating Support


Through our General Operating Support funds we are able to keep the costs of membership and program affordable while maintaining program quality and delivery. By donating to General Operating Support, you provide the Y with maximum flexibility to address funding gaps for programs and services as needed.

The Y subsidized $1,410,288 in program costs.


Capital Projects
Each year, the Y makes significant capital improvements to all its branches
and facilities. By donating to the YMCA’s capital fund, you can help us to keep our facilities current and up to date for years to come.

This year, the Metro YMCAs of the Oranges will invest over $800,000 in land, building and equipment improvements at our branch facilities.

Mission Statement- The Metro YMCAs of the Oranges enriches the lives of the children, families and communities we serve, through programs that build spirit, mind and body, welcoming all people, in an environment nurturing positive values.
