Financial Assistance
Giving back is a core part of our mission. That’s what makes the YMCA of Broome County so unique. We actively work to ensure that membership is available for everyone, regardless of your individual financial situation.
Our commitment covers a range of products and services, from general membership which covers all our programs and services, to our youth programs and summer camp. Our commitment covers all ages, from infants to seniors.
Eligibility
Financial assistance is available to anyone based on family income, number of household members and the availability of Y funds. Funds can be used for membership and/or program fees, including summer day camp and programs for which additional fees apply, such as sports or aquatics. All Y members receive the same membership benefits, regardless of scholarship assistance.
How to Apply
Complete a membership application and the financial assistance form. Applications are available at the Welcome Center or can also be downloaded here. Bring your completed membership application to the Welcome Desk to be processed.
Support From Our Neighbors
Thanks to the generosity of our donors, we are able to make the Y accessible through our Financial Assistance Program. Funds raised from the YMCA’s Annual Campaign, Corporate Challenge and Golf Tournament are allocated to children and families in need, ensuring that no one is ever turned away for an inability to pay.
