01What it does

What Tri-County Young Mens Christian Association Inc does

Mission

The tri-county ymca's mission is to put christian principles into practice through programs that build healthy spirit, mind and body for all.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Programs

  1. Health enhancement and well-being for all - they are a leading voice on health and well-being. We bring families closer together, encourage good health, and foster communication through fitness, sports, fun, and shared interests. We offer a welcoming atmosphere where participants feel comfortable engaging in various activities. As a result in 2025, 13,589 (duplicated) individuals in our community are receiving the support, guidance, and resources they need to achieve greater health in spirit, mind and body. This is particularly important as our nation struggles with an obesity crisis, families struggle with work/life balance, and individuals search for personal fulfillment. Our programs are accessible, affordable, and open to all faiths, backgrounds, abilities, and income levels. Financial assistance is available for those who cannot afford full fees.

  2. Child care and summer day camp - the y offers state licensed, quality childcare that is committed to nurturing the potential of every child and youth. We believe that all kids deserve the opportunity to discover who they are and what they can achieve. That's why we help young people cultivate the values, skills, and relationships that lead to positive behaviors, better health, and educational achievement. Our programs such as after school care, vacation day care, and summer day camp, offer a range of experiences that enrich cognitive, social, physical, and emotional growth. Our programs provide learning activities that provide challenges, education, self-respect, and spiritual awareness. Our day camp program provides a reverence for nature and respect for the inter-relatedness of all living things on earth. Our programs are open to all, regardless of income, abilities, or background, so that children appreciate diversity and develop lifelong values and respect for all individuals. Financial assistance is available for those who cannot afford full fees. In 2025, 538 (unduplicated) youth between the ages of 4 to 14 years of age benefitted from these programs. Our organization…

  3. Youth instructional and sports programs - the ymca's philosophy is that everyone participates and tha fun and fair play are a priority. Our programs help develop self-esteem and the core values of caring, respect, responsibility, and honestly. You gain specific skills and acquire new knowledge, as well as a sense of belonging. Our programs promote teamwork, interaction, and the development of social and physical skills. In providing these types of programs, tri-county ymca realized that there was an audience in our service area which lacked programs of this nature. We now offer our chalenger sports programs for children and young adults with physical, developmental, and intellectual disabilities. Challenger programs are an opportunity for children with special need to play organized activities, learn new skills, and be on a team where everyone is accepted. All youth are welcome to participate in any of our youth instructional and sports programs regardless of their income, abilities, or background. Financial assistance is available for those who cannot afford full fees. In 2025, 964 (unduplicated) children and young adults participated in these programs.

The organization over time

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 2 funders to 3 funders, grant income fell $25k → $12k.

5 of 9 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 36% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

From the IRS filings of TRI-COUNTY YOUNG MENS CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left

91% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund TRI-COUNTY YOUNG MENS CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION INC.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $129k arriving through sponsors registered in 4 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
