BE THE CHANGE

We believe the YMCA is uniquely suited to meet our community’s needs and we continue to prove it every day through the reinvention of the organization in an effort to better serve the area’s ever-changing social landscape.

The unanticipated impact of the COVID-19 pandemic forever changed the community and the Newport YMCA mobilized almost overnight to meet those demands while also being severely impacted by the pandemic itself via membership and budget shortfalls. There has never been a more critical time to support the work of the YMCA. Over the past two years, we have redesigned programs to meet the community need, and put an emphasis on ending isolation, inspiring our youth to thrive while reimagining opportunities, all in an effort to restore hope and well-being to our community.

Join us in making an impact in our community

The Newport YMCA works with our neighbors to ensure everyone, regardless of age, income or background has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive, regardless of ability to pay.

We work hard each and every day to make a difference in the lives of our community members through YMCA programs that impact our area’s youth, families and older adults.

The needs of our community are diverse and evolving, and the Y is needed now more than ever. Together, we strive to create a stronger community and bring about meaningful change in our community. Your support is vital to our success, and enables us to be an essential component of the lives of so many in our area.

In the Newport County, YMCA wellness facilities and hundreds of program sites strive to empower youth, build healthier families and foster inclusive communities. These programs are driven by our mission of serving Newport as a cause-driven organization for youth development, healthy living and social responsibility.

Join us in making an impact

The campaign is about more than just raising money. It is about the life changing impact that the YMCA provides by opening doors to those in need. The child who gains confidence through learning opportunities, the active older adult who is no longer isolated and is living a healthy and active lifestyle, a family given opportunities to spend quality time together and so many more. The stories of those who are impacted by the Y have the power to unite and inspire.
