Each year, the YMCA organizes and drives the Strong Kids Campaign.  Money is raised to help those in need of extra assistance to be able to participate in Y programming.  No child is turned away, because every child deserves a chance to excel in the activities they are good at!

The YMCA is here for good, and it’s here for you, based on what you can afford.  If you are in need of assistance above and beyond the Open Door Rates, you may be eligible for Financial Assistance.  Stop by the YMCA front desk and pick up an application, or click on the link below to download and print it.  After you fill out the application and bring in the appropriate paperwork, you will then need to set up an appointment with Heidi Foster, Membership Director.  Heidi can be reached at (217)466-9622 or hfoster@parisymca.com
