YOUR DONATION TRANSFORMS LIVES

Support the Sumter Family YMCA in building a stronger, healthier community.

BUILDING BRIGHTER FUTURES

Each year, contributions from donors like you help our Y provide assistance and resources to our neighbors and friends.  Every day presents new opportunities for us to make an impact, to adapt and serve our community.

With your help, we can continue to offer and improve our programs to meet the growing needs of our community.  The funds raised through our Annual Campaign, led by dedicated volunteers, support all our services.  Every dollar stays right here, providing financial assistance to those in need.

Together, we can empower families and children to learn, grown and thrive.

JOIN US IN MAKING A DIFFERENCE

Our Annual Campaign is about more than just raising money; it’s about the life-changing impact the Sumter Family YMCA has on our community. It’s about the child who needs a safe place to go after school, the parent who feels at ease knowing their child in daycare is having fun, the seniors who meet for coffee and a walk, the family that never misses a special event, and the kids who get to try new things because of a scholarship. It’s about our community.

The stories of those touched by the Y have the power to unite and inspire us all. Join us in continuing to open doors and create opportunities for those in need. Together, we can make a lasting difference in our community.

MAKE YOUR DONATION

Help us deliver on our cause through a charitable donation to make our mission impact possible. Our community faces new challenges that create a greater need for the work we do, and we need your help to do it. Your support enables our community’s success.

COACH BOBBY BAKER

Since the 1970s, Coach Bobby Baker has been a guiding force in Youth Basketball, teaching hundreds—if not thousands—of Sumter’s young athletes not just the game, but valuable life lessons. To honor his lasting impact, the Sumter Family YMCA is proud to name the basketball court of our newly renovated Lower Gymnasium as the Coach Bobby Baker Court.

We invite you to join us for a special dedication ceremony: Saturday, August 9 at 5:30 PM

VOLUNTEER

Our Sumter County community is made up of people who want to better the world around them. From business leaders to advocates, parents to teens, many folks are passionate about giving back and supporting their neighbors. At the Y, we have the presence and partnerships needed to not just promise, but also deliver positive personal and social change.
