HELP
You may know the Y for our equipment, exercise classes, courts,
or camps, but the Y is much more than movement and machinery.
We offer transformative programs in teen leadership, afterschool
and summer learning, youth employment, mentoring, a summer
food program, social support and connections to community. We
touch the lives of 1,200 teens in Los Alamos and Rio Arriba
counties, and improve the health of 8,000 in Los Alamos.
And it is free or at low cost for those who need it most. That’s
where you come in.
You can help us make our community stronger as we reach
people of all ages and backgrounds. When you volunteer or give,
you’re building a stronger community.
And you can choose the impact you’ll make.
You can volunteer as a campaigner, contribute to our Annual
Campaign that ensures access to some 275 children and adults
each year, leave a legacy gift to our Endowment Campaign that
invests in future Y programs, make a gift to our past gymnasium
Capital Campaign, or any combination of these.
From safe spaces to academic achievement, to family well-being
and more, when you donate to the Y, you’re giving those in need the
opportunity to thrive. Give for a better us.
Together we can build a better us.

We believe that every child who wants to play basketball, or learn Tae Kwon
Do, or go to Y Camp should have that opportunity...and that our After
School Enrichment program is not just for those families that can afford
it...and if an individual wants to become healthier and lead a more active
lifestyle, price should not be a deterrent. That's why we work so hard
year-round to raise funds.
CHARITABLE IMPACT
To give 275 children & adults $100,000 in scholarships. This went toward
membership (20%), afterschool (40%) and camp (40%) access. Of these folks, 118
are youth; To give 700+ teens served at the Española YMCA Teen Center enriching,
unfunded programs; To give 1,300+ teens (600+ members and another 700+ in
outreach) a chance to participate in outdoor, unfunded programs.
The social-emotional, cognitive, and physical process that all youth
uniquely experience from birth to career; it is nourishing their need
to be loved, spiritually grounded, educated, competent and healthy.

eating habits? Then we are here to help! We are offering two unique 6-week

MANAGE YOUR CHRONIC DISEASE (MyCD) PROGRAM
“When I started getting into swimming, I felt comfortable. The
instructor was also a swim coach and this became competitive
swimming for me and my brother. I lived for the Y. I became a
part of something there. I was good at swimming and made more
friends there than school. Swimming became part of our everyday
life. After school, I swam, then went home. For me,that ‘Y’ symbol
has always been huge. I think it saved my life. I didn’t feel good
about myself in the new place. I was nothing. I was weird. All my
clothes were homemade, kids made fun of me, I was bullied.
Swimming gave me confidence again.”
– Andrea Mena Lynch,
reflecting on being a child refugee who spoke no English,
and how the Y helped her to belong again.
If you have a condition such as diabetes, arthritis, high blood pressure, heart
disease, chronic pain, anxiety, depression, or other chronic health condition, a
MyCD Workshop can help you take charge of your life. You’ll get the support you
need, find practical ways to deal with pain and fatigue, discover better
nutrition and exercise choices, understand new treatment choices, and learn
better ways to talk with your doctor and family about your health. These 2½
hour classes meet weekly for six weeks at the Betty Ehart Senior Center,
662-8920. Class TBD
FREE to the Community!
PERSONAL NUTRITION COUNSELING
Understanding the relationship between nutrients and your health empowers
