see the Y in action

2020 has been a year of uncertainty, fear & change.  Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, our Y has stood strong for our community in the face of it.  

We immediately pivoted to focus on helping those in need through:

• Weekly food box distributions
• Emergency blood drives
• Education and child care programs
• On-site virtual learning support providing a safe space for students to connect to their classrooms during virtual learning days
• Community outreach to our most vulnerable neighbors 

And as a space for ALL to learn, grow and thrive, we are proud to provide a platform for peaceful progress and unity in the fight against racism and social injustice.  Through our bi-monthly YTALKS virtual town halls, we bring together voices to discuss how we can together affect positive change and achieve equality.

Be a part of the change. Together, we can transform 2020 into a year of growth, opportunity and strength. Give today so that we can continue this important work serving our community.

A leader for nearly 120 years, the Ridgewood YMCA, brings people together.  Located in the heart of Ridgewood, our Y serves 43 towns and a population of over 500,000 people.  Our mission is driven by our deep commitment to youth development, healthy living and social responsibility.
