YMCA of Greater Charlotte

YMCA of Greater Charlotte At the Y, strengthening community is our cause. We're more than a gym. We're a cause.

We work side-by-side with our neighbors to make sure that everyone, regardless of age, income or background, has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive. The Y is a charity, dedicated to youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. With programs from A to Z - like athletics to advocacy, dance classes to disease prevention, volleyball to volunteerism - we don't just strengthen individuals, we strengthen an entire community. Every day, we take on challenges that will shape our community's future - challenges like the academic achievement gap, obesity and social isolation. Together with our members, volunteers, donors and community partners, we make our community stronger by focusing on three philanthropic priorities:

- Driving academic achievement and inspiring kids to reach their greatest potential
- Tackling our community's greatest health challenges and improving quality of life
- Ensuring access and inclusion so that everyone has a chance to succeed and belong

Jack and Alex’s full story is here. 💙

For seven summers, Camp Boomerang has given the siblings a place to be themselves, build friendships, and experience the joy of belonging together. Their grandmother, Marion, says she has never found another camp that supports both Jack, who is neurodiverse, and Alex, who is neurotypical, in quite the same way.

“He feels like he belongs to Camp Boomerang.”

Camp Boomerang is one example of the programs Y Give helps make possible. Throughout September, every donation supports the YMCA of Greater Charlotte’s mission and impact across the community.

Plus, thanks to our Official Joy Sponsor, Coca-Cola Consolidated, the first $50,000 in donations will be matched.
