FINANICAL ASSISTANCE IS AVAILABLE FOR THOSE THAT CANNOT AFFORD THE VITAL SERVICES THAT THE Y PROVIDES.

With Membership For All, kids and families find the assets they need in YMCA programs like membership, youth sports, swim lessons, parent-child programs, summer camp, teen leadership, and others. Our goal is that no one is turned away from a YMCA program because they can’t afford it.

MILITARY OUTREACH

Deployment can be a stressful and uncertain time for our nation’s servicemen and women and their families. In partnership with the Armed Services YMCA and the Department of Defense, the Ridgewood Y is proud to offer memberships to eligible military families and personnel to give them extra support during this difficult period. It’s our way of giving back to those who dedicate themselves to serving our country.
