TRANSCRIPT
Our Mission:
The mission of the YMCA, a membership based organiza-
tion, is to put Christian principles into practice through
programs that build healthy spirit, mind, and body for all.
Our Cause:
Our cause is strengthening community. Every day we work
side by side with our neighbors to make sure that every-
one, regardless of age, income or background has the op-
portunity to learn, grow and thrive.
Our Areas of Focus:
Youth Development—nurturing the potential of every child
and teen.
Healthy Living—Improving our community’s health and well
-being.
Social Responsibility—Giving back and providing support to
our neighbors.
Our Heritage:
For over 119 years, the YMCA of Lenawee County has
worked to strengthen the lives of children, families and
individuals throughout our community. We are proud of
this rich history of service, and we are most proud when
our members tell us inspiring stories about how the Y has
changed their lives. These stories are what motivate us to
do what we do.
GROWING
STRONGER
TOGETHER
In 2011:
171 children were provided a safe place to learn skills,
develop healthy, trusting relationships and build self-
reliance through Y values at our 3 Pre-school Child
Care programs or through one of our 6 afterschool
sites.
Summer Day Camp programs provided 154 youth the
opportunity to make new friends, discover new skills
and enjoy a summer of fun in an atmosphere that rein-
forces the values of caring, honesty, respect and re-
sponsibility.
The Y helps youth learn about being active and devel-
oping healthy lifestyles they will carry with them
throughout their lives. Whether it was the 676 youth
gaining the confidence that comes from learning to
swim, or the 1088 youth building positive relationships
that lead to good sportsmanship and teamwork
through sports, the Y is about building the whole per-
son from the inside out.
I AM WHY. Because I am the future
Nurturing the potential of every child
and teen
We believe the values and skills learned early on are
vital building blocks for life. Because of the Y, more
young people around our community are taking a
greater interest in learning and making smarter life
choices. At the Y, children and teens learn values and
positive behaviors and can explore their unique tal-
ents and interests, helping them realize their poten-
tial. This makes for confident kids today and contrib-
uting and engaged adults tomorrow.
In 2011:
More than 170 kids enjoyed a day of fun and active play at the Healthy
Kids Field Day held in collaboration with Adrian College. Student athletes
from the college comprised more than 150 volunteers for this free com-
munity event.
The fourth annual Splash and Dash youth triathlon gave more than 160
youth the opportunity to stay active and develop healthy habits they’ll
carry with them throughout their lives.
In collaboration with several other community health partners, the YMCA
continued work on the Pioneering Healthier Communities initiative focus-
ing on policies, systems and environmental changes that will promote
healthy lifestyles and combat childhood obesity.
At the Y, a supportive community is a big part of wellness. At every age
and every level of activity, you’ll find people just like you looking to live a
little bit healthier. Through our water exercise, land exercise, cycling and
wellness programs more than 2,800 adults participated in activities that
promote a healthy lifestyle.
WE ARE WHY. Because being healthy is important to our
community
Being healthy means more than simply being
physically active. It’s about maintaining a bal-
anced spirit, mind and body. The Y is a place
where everyone can work toward that balance
by challenging themselves to learn a new skill or
hobby, fostering connections with friends
through our lifelong learning programs, or
bringing your loved ones closer together
through our family –centered activities. At the
Y, it’s not about the activity as much as it is
about the benefits of being healthier.
In 2011:
The generosity of others is at the core of our existence.
Through the 2011 Strong Kids Campaign $25,670 was raised to
provide financial assistance to those that otherwise couldn’t
afford a YMCA membership or program. However, the need for
support far exceeded the amount that was raised. In 2011, the
YMCA provided over $62,000 in support to more than 871 chil-
dren and families in our community.
There is no other volunteer organization quite like the Y. It is
only through the commitment of over 400 program and policy
volunteers that we are able to give back to the community we
serve.
We are a powerful ally and advocate for Lenawee County. Last
year, through partnerships and collaborations such as Healthy
Lenawee, Splash & Dash and Healthy Kids Field Day we were
able to expand our impact on issues such as childhood obesity
and the overall health and well-being of our community.
Lenawee County is fortunate to be surrounded by many lakes
and rivers. Last year, through a free water safety initiative
known as SPLASH, 88 children were able to learn new skills to
keep them safe in an aquatic environment.
The Y has always been a place where families can play and be
active together, and that’s more important today than ever be-
fore. In 2011, family nights, holiday events, family swim and
gym all helped provide these opportunities for the more than
922 families.
YOU ARE WHY. Because by giving back we support our
friends and neighbors.
The YMCA of Lenawee County has been listening
and responding to our community’s most critical
social needs for more than 119 years. We know
that when we work as one, we move people and
communities forward. That’s why we are commit-
ted to providing support to our neighbors and
opportunities for kids, adults and families to give,
join in or advocate in the name of stronger com-
munities.
