YMCA of Greater Cincinnati News

Cincinnati, Ohio – April 3, 2024 – HER Cincinnati (est. 1830 as Cincinnati Union Bethel) a leading social services agency whose purpose is to empower women to break the cycles of poverty, addiction, and human trafficking, is thrilled to announce a groundbreaking partnership with the YMCA. Beginning in March 2024, the YMCA will serve as the official child care provider for the newly established Walnut Hills Early Learning YMCA at Cincinnati Scholar House.

An important aspect of the YMCA's mission is inclusivity, which is evident in the core values of the YMCA: caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility.

We just celebrated the Day of Giving which kicks off the Community portion of our Annual Support Campaign. Thanks to each of our donors we collectively raised $49,480. Through this campaign, we can continue to make a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals and families, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to thrive.

The Annual Support Campaign supports the YMCA's mission to strengthen our community by promoting youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility. All money raised goes back to your communities to help with Veteran and family memberships, provide swim lessons, or send a child to camp.

Day of Giving may be over but you can still provide crucial funding for programs that make a tangible difference in the lives of individuals and families in our communities. Stop into your local YMCA and grab a BINGO square to sponsor a Veteran or something dear to your heart!
