As a Community Champion, you have a transformative, sustaining impact right where you live. Your monthly donation helps meet the needs of our community with access to financial assistance, as well as free community initiatives including Chronic Disease Programs, 7th Grade Initiative, Mental Health First Aid Training, the Safety Around Water program, and more.
With your help, we take action in our commitment to healthy living, youth development, and social responsibility and ensure that all members of our community can access the Y’s programs and services, regardless of their ability to pay.
Why Give Monthly?
Deeper Impact. With a consistent and manageable monthly contribution, you expand your annual giving potential and become a steady source of support for your community.
Convenience. Your monthly gift is drafted automatically on the 15th of each month using the payment method on file for your regularly scheduled membership fee.
Flexibility. Adjusting your gift is easy and can be done at any time. To increase, decrease, or suspend your monthly contribution, email [email protected].
Efficiency. Monthly giving means low hassle for you and low administration costs for the Y, which means that more of your gift goes to where it’s needed most.
Streamlined Giving Summaries. The YMCA of Montclair is a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization and your gift is fully deductible as a charitable contribution to the extent allowed by law. Community Champions will receive a year-end giving statement that makes it easy to claim your tax deduction.
