FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
The lasting effects of Covid-19 on our community are still unknown. What we at the Edwardsville YMCA know
is that our commitment to stand firm in our mission to impact the lives of others and to never turn away those
who are unable to afford the necessary benefits the Y provides. Those benefits include, (but are not limited
to) building healthy habits, growing relationships and fellowship with other members and having a safe place
for children to learn, grow and thrive.
We believe these to be essential needs for our community; however we alone are unable to fund all the
assistance needed to help fulfill the requests that come in every year. Through the generosity of our
community’s businesses and individuals, members and staff, donations to the Annual Campaign help to fund
our Financial Assistance Program.
The recurring reasons for requesting assistance include: job loss, illness and injury rehabilitation. These
requests continue to increase and as a non-profit, we are committed to helping as many individuals and
families as possible.

Our dance program gives students more opportunities, allowing a recreational or progressive track with overlap in ages for various levels.
If your child has less dance experience, please opt for the class in which they are at the higher age range. If your child has more dance experience,
you may opt for the class in which they are at the lower age range. Students should expect to spend 1-2 years minimum in each level before
advancement. Unsure where your child may fit? Contact Darla Andree at 655-1460 or dandree@edwymca.com.
