Membership mike-reeves@ymca-kc.org
"Share the Joy"- The YMCA of Greater Kansas City is a not-for-profit agency that is determined to turn no person away due to an inability to pay the stated membership fees. In order to live this mission, we have the "Annual Mission Campaign."
Every year, the 8th Street YMCA and the Providence YMCA/Ball Family Center provide over $300,000 in Financial Assistance to the KCK community. In 2008, we have set a goal to raise $70,000 to assist with the "Anuual Mission Campaign" and we are asking for your help.
All donations are 100% tax deductible and every penny raised in KCK will stay in KCK to continue providing financial assistance to our community. Please consider helping the YMCA of Greater Kansas City serve all the members of our community.
"Share the Joy" Update - With a total of $59,913 as of July 7th, we are at 85% of our goal. Thank you KCK for your support! If you would like to help support our mission, please contact us 913-378-9622.
