PARTNERS WITH YOUTH
We have made a promise to the people of Butte that no one would be denied access to our programs or facilities due to an inability to pay. You, our members and program participants, are a critical part of this effort. It is a simple premise. When you belong, so does he. Partners with Youth is the program through which we provide financial assistance to families or individuals who want to participate, but simply cannot afford the fees. Making a donation to the Partners with Youth campaign is easy and helps us keep our promise to the community. You can send a check to the attention of Partners with Youth if you would like to donate.
MEMORIAL GIFTS
Gifts may be made in memory of someone special to you that was a supporter of the Butte Family YMCA or was always doing everything they could for the people, especially children, of Butte. Notice of your donation will be given to the family of the memorialized. You can send a check to the Attention of Memorials if you would like to donate. Remember to provide us with the mailing information for the family of the memorialized.
The talented volunteers of the Y are some of the most important donors we have. Volunteering your time to the Y can help assure that every child has a chance to participate in a Youth Sport or help secure important donation pledges at annual fundraisers. There are many more ways to give time and we could certainly use your talents. Download and bring in the Volunteer Application or talk to the Membership & Marketing Director about more Y Volunteer opportunities.
