The YMCA of Metro Denver is proud to participate in Colorado Youth Sports Giving Day, a statewide effort to level the playing field for every child. This initiative is more than a fundraiser. It’s a movement to ensure every kid, regardless of zip code or income, can experience the lifelong benefits of sports: confidence, teamwork, discipline and joy.
From September 1 through September 15, donations to the YMCA will be matched, DOUBLING the impact of every dollar raised.
At the YMCA, we believe the best thing kids take away from sports isn’t a medal or a trophy — it’s confidence, character and the courage to keep trying when things get tough.
Here's what your donation makes possible:
$30 → provides a sports jersey to one child, giving them the confidence of wearing their team colors and feeling like they truly belong from the very first practice.
$85 → provides one child with access to Soccer Academy, helping them learn the value of teamwork on and off the field.
$110 → funds a full NinjaZone session for one child, helping them build lifelong confidence and develop new skills.
$350 → gives two siblings the opportunity to play a full season of NFL Flag Football, creating memories together while building resilience and a sense of belonging.
$930 → provides a volleyball season for a team of six young athletes, creating a space where they can grow as players, support one another, and learn resilience that extends far beyond the court.
Your gift brings a child one step closer to the joy of being part of a team.
