Thank You

The Summerville Family YMCA would like to thank all of our members for their continued support. Additionally, we would like to thank everyone who has contributed to this year's Annual Campaign. This campaign helps the Y to:

Provide financial assistance to those individuals who are not able to afford Y membership or program fees.
Keep program and membership fees affordable to the Greater Summerville Community.

In 2010, we were able to provide over $180,000 in financial assistance. If you would like to contribute to this year's campaign, click here.
