What is Annual Campaign?
The Annual Campaign is more than just a fundraiser, it’s a movement that ensures everyone in our community has the opportunity to thrive. Through scholarships and community outreach programs, the campaign opens doors for youth, adults, and families who might not otherwise have access to the Y. What makes this effort so special is that it brings together volunteers, donors, and Y supporters to stand united around what we all value most: community. Every dollar raised stays right here at home, directly supporting our neighbors and strengthening the place we all share. We invite you to be part of this effort to give, to volunteer, to rally alongside us, so that together, we can lift up those who need it most and ensure the Y is a place for all.
Make An Impact
Volunteer
Each year, dedicated community members come together to support the Y through our Annual Campaign. Volunteers of all ages and backgrounds play an important role in helping us strengthen our community.
As a volunteer, you’ll share your personal Y story with friends, family, and neighbors, inspiring others to give. Along the way, you’ll build meaningful connections, grow leadership and communication skills, and experience the fulfillment that comes from supporting a cause that benefits us all.
Donate
The Channel Islands YMCA is a charitable organization dedicated to strengthening our community. When you support the Y, you join an organization that offers well-being and opportunity for children, teens, adults, and families.
Annual Impact Report
At the end of every year, we have the privilege of celebrating with you the lives we have touched, the partnerships we have built, and the inspiring stories that remind us why this work matters. In 2024-2025, we served more people than ever before in our facilities, childcare, and community programs. With the help of our volunteers, we raised a record-breaking $3 million. Those funds provided thousands of membership and childcare scholarships, funded crucial community programs like LIVESTRONG, and allowed us to continue investing in the future of communities across the Central Coast.
