Organizations Filed Purposes:
The mission and purpose of the YMCA is to serve the community by reaching out to everyone in the community in a spirit of inclusion and fellowship. YMCA's put Christian principles into practice through programs that build healthy spirit, mind and body for all. YMCA programs focus on four core values-caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility. We serve men, women, and children of all ages focusing on Youth Development, Healthy Living and Social Responsibility.
HEALTHY LIVING According to the center for disease control (CDC), in 2017, no state had a prevalence of obesity less than 20%, in fact, only two states (Colorado and Hawaii) had less than 25% obesity rate. The rest of the states have a prevalence of 25% or more; Missouri has a prevalence of 30% or more. Cooper County Missouri in 2017 (countyhealthrankings.org), tipped the scales at 35 percent with Howard County not far behind at 34 percent. The site also shows that the percentage of physically inactive adults in Cooper County is 26% and 28% in Howard County. A lack of healthy eating and physical activity is a serious concern in every community in America. The YMCA focuses on every age, culture and socioeconomic group in our service area regardless of their ability to pay. Our focus is to offer programs that teach, model and encourage the correct methodology for healthy eating and active living. We also collaborate with the medical field to provide relevant and current information to assist individuals in making healthy decisions in their daily lives.
YOUTH DEVELOPMENT Our approach to successful youth development is demonstrated through a road map that identifies important cognitive, social-emotional, and physical milestones along the birth to career continuum. Early Learning - Licensed programs at our Early Childhood Learning Center that provide children ages 6 weeks-5 yrs with high-quality experiences to develop/prepare them cognitively, socially, emotionally and physically. Adventure Club Before and After School Programming - provides academic intervention healthy activities, and enrichment opportunities during afters-school hours to elementary age youth, improving their grades, increasing social-emotional competencies, and reducing risk-taking behavior. Summer Learning Loss Prevention - Focused on reading and enrichment for elementary age youth from low-income families most at risk of losing school-year literacy gains over the summer. This is a grant funded program that takes place in the Y's 21st Century Community Learning Center site at the Y.
SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY The YMCA is socially responsible by providing support for the economically challenged, assisting individuals in obtaining a higher education, providing meals to youth, providing a place for people to volunteer, and working with many civic organizations to better the community. ASSISTANCE / SCHOLARSHIPS The YMCA has provided assistance to the economically challenged by means scholarships for programs and membership, and college tuition through a local fundraising event. COLLABORATIONS The YMCA believes working together to create a better community is the key to success. The YMCA has many collaborations with a variety of community organizations. Cooper County Health Department, University of Missouri extension, Boonville public schools, Unlimited Opportunities, Boonville parks and recreation, Cooper County relay for life, and Central Missouri Community Action are a few of the collaborations. After school meal program - meals are provided during the summer as a lunch and during the school year as dinner. We are also providing healthy snacks. Volunteers - the YMCA also provides individuals with opportunities to volunteer. Volunteers are helping the YMCA as coaches, board members, committee members, instructors, teaching assistants, IT service, maintenance and custodial work. In 2019, the YMCA had over 200 volunteers, doing thousands of hours of work, saving the YMCA over $85,000.
