Our YMCA is committed to nurturing the potential of every child and teen. We believe all kids have great potential and deserve the opportunity to discover who they are and what they can achieve. That's why we help young people cultivate the values, skills and relationships that lead to positive behaviors, better health and educational achievement. Our YMCA programs such as Early Care and Education and Before and After School Excellence offer a range of experiences that enrich social-emotional, cognitive and physical growth. Expenses include subsidies and direct financial assistance that make participation for 100 % of the young people we engage.
Our YMCA believes in giving back and supporting our neighbors. We have been listening and responding to our community's most critical social needs for more than 100 years. Y programs, such as, Our Phoenix School and our Neighborhood Leadership Institute of Summit County, are examples of how we deliver training resources and support that empower our neighbors to effect change, bridge gaps and overcome obstacles. In 2019, we engaged 53,463 YMCA members, participants and volunteers in activities that strengthen our community and pave the way for future generations to thrive.
The Y is committed to improving America's health and well-being, community by community. We bring families closer together, encourage good health and foster connections through fitness, sports, fun and shared interests. As a result, 53,463 people in our community are receiving support, guidance and resources they need to achieve greater health in spirit, mind and body. This is particularly important as our nation struggles with chronic disease and obesity, families wrestle with work/life balance and individuals search for personal fulfillment.
