At YMCA-YWCA of Winnipeg, JOY is more than a feeling—it’s an act of kindness that changes lives.
When you make a gift to our JOY Campaign, you help us address the unique needs and challenges our community members face, such as isolation, financial barriers, child care, language and cultural barriers, and mental health challenges. Your generosity helps provide opportunities for people to overcome obstacles, tap into their full potential, and give back to their communities.
When you donate to the Y, you’re giving JOY to people in your community:

JOY is
a child discovering the magic of their first day at camp.

JOY is
a newcomer family finding support to settle in a new home.

JOY is
youth building confidence through leadership programs.

JOY is
someone accessing mental health programs when they need it most.

JOY is
a senior staying active and connected through health and fitness.

JOY is
a family finding belonging and community at the Y.
Your generosity helps create moments like these, building a stronger, more connected community where everyone has a place to belong and opportunities to thrive.
