The Metropolitan YMCA of the Oranges uses charitable donations in four ways: the YMCA Financial Assistance Fund, Program Initiatives, General Operating Support, and Capital Projects.

General Operating Support

Through our General Operating Support funds we are able to keep the costs of membership and program affordable while maintaining program quality and delivery. By donating to General Operating Support, you provide the YMCA with maximum flexibility to address funding gaps for programs and services as needed.


Our YMCA will subsidize $1,410,288 in program costs.

Capital Projects

Each year, the YMCA makes significant capital improvements to all its branches and facilities. By donating to the YMCA’s capital fund, you can help us to keep our facilities current and up to date for years to come.

This year, Metropolitan YMCA of the Oranges will invest over $800,000 in land, building and equipment improvements at our branch facilities.
