Annual Support Campaign

What is the We Build People Campaign?

Our annual campaign is the major fundraising campaign of the YMCA. Funds raised help those who need it most by providing financial assistance to youth, teens, families and other individuals and ensures that no one is denied the  opportunity to share in the YMCA experience due to the  inability to pay. The YMCA of Saratoga provides essential support that strengthens families and helps children grow in character.

needs it." - Bob, We Build People Donor
