  2. Youth development: nurturing the potential of every child and teen. The ymca believes that all kids deserve the opportunity to discover who they are and what they can achieve. That's why, through the y, millions of youth today are taking a greater interest in learning; making smarter life choices; and cultivating the values, skills and relationships that lead to positive behaviors, the pursuit of higher education and goal achievement. State licensed childcare: the ymca operates the largest childcare center in hancock county, (mary brenner child development center), serving 226 families and providing care for 327 children throughout the year. 45% of our children come from families that receive some sort of financial assistance. The ymca also operates a childcare center in the nearby cory rawson school with 50 kids from 37 families attending at the end of 2025. The findlay ymca runs the yabss program in wilson vance and chamberlin hill schools which provides before and after school care for 68 kids from 55 families.

  3. Social responsibility: giving back and providing support to our neighbors. Across the country, the ymca helps people give back and assist their neighbors by offering opportunities to volunteer, advocate and support programs that strengthen community. The ymca takes on a much broader role as a community leader when it steps outside the role of serving just its members and program participants and takes on projects that bring benefit to the community at large. Examples of such social responsibility come with the ymca's operating the riverside community swimming pool and the feeding of hungry children in our schools through the ymca feed a child program. In 2025 the ymca continued its partnership with the city of findlay for the fourteenth year by managing the riverside city pool so that it remained open to our city's residents. This season over 15,000 swimmers attended the city pool during the summer. During the school year of 2024-2025, the ymca continued to administer the feed a child program. With the financial support of our community, hancock county united way, the hancock county community foundation, ohio logistics, garner transportation and marathon petroleum co., hundreds of…

03Who funds it

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 7 funders, grant income rose $91k → $475k.

7 of 17 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 42% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

Left out of every figure on this page: $1.1M from one payer (the payer shares this organization's board, largest The Findlay-Hancock County Community Foundation). These are real filings, and they are not money YOUNG MENS CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION FINDLAY OHIO raised.

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.

YOUNG MENS CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION FINDLAY OHIO leans on a few funders — its largest provides 45% of grant income and the top three 85%; half comes from just 2 funders.

99% 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 YOUNG MENS CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION FINDLAY OHIO.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $787k arriving through sponsors registered in 6 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.
