Our Cause Defines Us

The Y is a nonprofit like no other. That’s because in 10,000 neighborhoods across the nation, we
have the presence and partnerships to not just promise, but deliver, positive change.
*- The Y is community centered. For nearly 160 years, we’ve been listening and responding to our communities.
*- The Y brings people together. We connect people of all ages and backgrounds to bridge the gaps in community needs.
*- The Y nurtures potential. We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive.
*- The Y has local presence and global reach. We mobilize local communities to effect lasting, meaningful change. Our Impact is Felt Every Day
With a mission to put Christian principles into practice through programs that build a healthy spirit, mind and body for all, our impact is felt when an individual makes a healthy choice, when a mentor inspires a child and when a community comes together for the common good.

🚨 Egg Drop Results 🚨
After a room full of brainstorming, building, testing, and a whole lot of creative mess, it was finally time for our Invent It, Build It campers to put their egg drop designs to the test.
The best part? Every drop was a chance to learn, problem-solve, and have fun.
👇 Tell us: Were you right about which egg would survive?

Whose egg will survive?🥚
Our Invent It, Build It campers put their engineering skills to the test during an egg drop challenge. From homemade parachutes to creative cushioning systems, these young inventors were all-in on protecting their eggs. And yes, the room got gloriously messy along the way.
That's what summer camp is for: experimenting, creating, failing, learning, and having fun.
🥚 Now place your bets... which design do you think survived the drop? Watch for the results video next!
