As a leading non-profit organization, the YMCA serves the Cedar Rapids, Marion and surrounding communities in Linn County by building healthier families, empowering youth and fostering inclusive communities. At the Y we ensure that everyone, regardless of age, income or background has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive, regardless of ability to pay. We work hard each day to make a difference in the lives of those in our community through programs that impact our area’s youth, families and older adults.

There are many ways to support our local YMCA.

1. The Annual Support Campaign ensures that everyone has equal access to the resources and tools they need to thrive.

Together, we strive to create a stronger community. Your donation helps ensure everyone, regardless of age, income or background has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive.
You can designate a location (Helen G. Nassif YMCA, Marion YMCA, Prairie Summit YMCA, YMCA Camp Wapsie), a program or give to the overall cause.

2. REACH THE SUMMIT – Equipment campaign for the Prairie Summit YMCA

Our REACH THE SUMMIT campaign strives to raise $1.5 million to equip the facility with fitness equipment, an EGYM system, youth and adult sports supplies including basketballs, volleyballs, footballs, soccer balls, pickleball nets, pickleball paddles, volleyball stantions and nets and pool supplies for swimming lessons and water exercise classes.

Under the partnership agreement between the College Community Schools and Cedar Rapids Metro YMCA, the College Community Schools pays for the construction of the building and the YMCA is responsible for equipment and materials for programming. This campaign is intended to assist the YMCA with delivering equipment and program materials that matches the potential of this new facility.

3. CAMP WAPSIE SLIDE & POOL IMPROVEMENTS CAMPAIGN

Camp Wapsie lost our outdated slide a few years ago. Our $80,000 campaign will install a new slide, a new diving board and make pool deck improvements. The pool at Camp Wapsie is THE place to cool off for campers on hot summer days and we ask for your support on this project.

Thanks to generous donors, we are able to fulfill this mission through low cost programs and raising money for direct financial assistance for families in need. One hundred percent of all dollars donated are invested into programs serving children and families in our community.

These programs, and your support, are vital to our community’s success. By working together, we can make a lasting impact on our area and ensure meaningful change that strengthens our community.
