Giving Every Child a Chance to Shine

At the New River YMCA, we believe that financial challenges should never stand in the way of a child’s summer adventure. Thanks to our generous Annual Campaign donors, we offer scholarships that make camp accessible to every family in our community. In 2025 alone, we were proud to provide $25,000 in financial assistance to ensure local children could experience the magic of summer camp.
