Thank you to Jen and everyone at Captains Cafe for providing our staff with a delicious brunch for our holiday celebration today!! (We would have gotten a photo with all the food but it was SO good it was gone before we got the chance!)

DATA SHOWS YMCAS ARE SAFE - A message from Kyle Stewart, Executive Director of the Alliance of New York State YMCAs The Alliance of New York State YMCAs would like to thank Governor Cuomo and his advisors for following the data and recognizing that gyms are one of the safest places to be during this pandemic. We also need to applaud our local YMCAs, their staff, volunteers, and members for diligently adhering to the state’s protocols. The safety of our communities is paramoun...t for all YMCAs. Since September, over 1.1 million visits have been logged at YMCAs across New York State with a positivity rate of just .003%, far less than the statewide positivity rate for gyms at .06%. We continue to be grateful for the efforts of YMCAs to keep their communities safe. We are hope that the Governor’s endorsement of gyms as a safe place, will encourage New Yorkers to return to their local Y and reactivate their healthy lifestyles. Since reopening in September, visits to the Y have decreased more than 70%. This decrease leaves us concerned for the future health and well-being of the communities we serve, as well as the sustainability of YMCAs. We appreciate the continued support of our communities, and we look forward to welcoming our friends and members back to the Y.

Lots of fun today making gingerbread houses! Cookies and a hot cocoa bar help making them easier!

As this tough year draws to a close, Geneva has been blessed with an unexpected visitor. These photos were taken by YMCA member Timothy Gersey & we are so happy to share them with you. We hope they make you smile as much as we did. #GivingTuesday

Hello & Happy Holidays! The Geneva YMCA has been gifted a wonderful opportunity to raise $75,000 for our facility by January 15th. An amazing donor has offered a two for one, a $50,000 matching gift to the Y - meaning for every dollar raised locally by the January 15th deadline, the donor will gift the YMCA two dollars up to $50,000. Essentially, you can ‘Triple Your Impact’ by donating to the YMCA during this time! We would like to ask you to please help us preserve the YMCA... for our community. Make a donation to the Y today and take advantage of this amazing opportunity to triple your gift and triple your impact! Your gift will help ensure the Y can continue its mission to strengthen our community for many years to come. Thank you for your time and for considering the YMCA!

As COVID-19 swept across the country, the Y was there for all our local families with childcare for essential workers, outreach to seniors facing social isolati...on, and virtual learning spaces as schools transferred to remote learning. Our goal is to remain open so we can continue providing that support and more. We are so proud to be here for our community, but we can't do it without your help. Please support us today, on #GivingTuesday. Investing in the Y is investing in the livelihood & wellbeing of your neighbors. www.ymcaforgood.org See more
