Exercise your heart in more ways than one
with a monthly gift to the YMCA.
When you give monthly to the YMCA, you provide:
- Scholarships to foster and refugee families
- Free summer camp for refugee youth
- Workforce development opportunities for teens
- Affordable preschool and after school childcare
- Access to the Livestrong program for cancer survivors
- Access to critical services and social supports for seniors
We are excited to announce . . .
That the YMCA of Marion and Polk Counties are expanding our affordable housing project to include an apartment complex called "Courtney Place" dedicated to Salem veterans and their families. The complex will be housed directly across from the new YMCA. The facility will have 1- and 2-bedroom units and will serve Salem veterans and residents that can demonstrate an area median income of 60% or below the poverty line.
We are proud to partner with Mid-Willamette Community Action Agency’s ARCHES project who will provide comprehensive services on the site for our residing veterans.
Further, all residents will have access to the Withnell Family YMCA and programs.
You can donate to Courtney Place Veterans housing below.
