The Y: Not A Place, A Purpose

You have probably visited a YMCA or dropped off your son or daughter for soccer practice. You probably know someone who learned to swim at the Y...

Did you know the YMCA is a nonprofit? We are! The YMCA of Metropolitan Dallas is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit social services organization dedicated to making our programs accessible for all. Therefore, financial assistance is available for almost every program we offer, and each year, donors, partner organizations, foundations, and volunteers give their time and financial support to help make this important work possible.

There are many ways to give to your Y. We invite you to become part of this mission that can change lives, with your help.
