Donations
Your support for the YMWCA of Newark and Vicinity allows us to build strong kids, strong families and a strong community. We believe there is no better way to shape the future of our community than by giving children and families the support they need in an environment of caring and security. The YMWCA is a 501(c)(3) not for profit corporation, offering hope and help to families through programs that teach values, build self-esteem and provide educational, recreational, and health and wellness opportunities.
Here's how you can help:
Annual Giving
Your donation to the Strong Kids Campaign helps ensure that the entire community has access to Y programs and services regardless of ability to pay. The recession and state budget cutbacks have strained many community services. Your support for the Strong Kids Campaign will give more children the benefit of excellent after school programs, summer day camp, swimming lessons, youth basketball and much more.

Capital Needs
To ensure high quality Y programming, our facilities must be well designed and aggressively maintained. Periodic capital campaigns ensure that we meet this need.
