When you give to the Arlington-Mansfield Area YMCA, your gift will help young people achieve their potential, empower people of all ages to lead healthier lives, and strengthen the bonds of our community. Together, we'll take on the greatest challenges facing our young people, our health and our community. And we offer this to everyone, regardless of their financial situation. We welcome individuals from all income levels, all ages, and all backgrounds. We bring together young and old, men and women, and people of all faiths, all for a common cause. Whether it's adaptive swim lessons, day camps or the Special Friends program for adults with developmental disabilities, the Y is a place for everyone in our community.
OUR COMMITMENT TO ENSURE A Y FOR ALL
Inspiring Youth To Thrive
With your help, we will continue to provide life skills, teamwork and leadership development through programs helping to develop independence and confidence, promote positive academic engagement to lift our youth and teens who may struggle with self-esteem or experience difficult school or family environments.
Investing in Water Safety
Drowning, the leading cause of death for children between the age of 1-4, is preventable. 70% of drownings happen during non-swim times and Tarrant County has high child drowning rates. According to the CDC, formal swim lessons can reduce drowning by 88%. The YMCA partners with apartment complexes, school districts and other community organizations to ensure that kids learn the skills necessary to be safe around water.
Building a Stronger Community
A healthy community is a strong community. Through innovative in-person and virtual programs, we can address health disparities, support mental wellness, and remove financial barriers.
Removing Limits & Reimagining Possibilities
Providing kids, families and communities with the resources and opportunities they need to learn, grow, and thrive is at the core of the Y. That's why we offer a range of programs and services to meet the unique needs of the evolving community we serve.
Engaging Globally, Welcoming Locally
We are intentional about serving our local neighbors that represent over 100 countries worldwide through various initiatives or events:
As part of the YMCA’s Diversity, Inclusion, and Global Engagement initiative, we partner with Ys in Vietnam, Mexico, Peru, and YMCA of the Seven Council Fires in South Dakota supporting cultural exchange and learning to gain a better understanding of segments of the populace that we seek to serve locally. This learning is crucial to our mission of being an organization FOR ALL.
Our mission: To put Christian principals into practice through programs that build a healthy spirit, mind, and body for all.
