The Kishwaukee Family YMCA offers a variety of programs and services. Here is a basic outline of just some of the ways we serve our community.
Health and Fitness:
The Kishwaukee Family YMCA addresses the most pressing challenges of the diverse population we serve. We do this by providing a broad range of accessible, effective and quality programs to address a variety of ongoing and emerging individual and community needs. All of these programs are anchored in the YMCA's philosophy of personal growth in spirit, mind and body. Building upon our charitable heritage, financial assistance ensured those who need the YMCA most – from all backgrounds and income levels – were able to benefit.
Member Services:
The Kishwaukee Family YMCA's most effective way to strengthen relationships and member involvement is by engaging members (whether members as participants, volunteers, staff, partners or community collaborators) at all levels and all ages in program design, operation and evaluation. We provide opportunities beyond individual and family activities for members to become involved, serve and lead the YMCA. Our goal is to align member experiences with the mission and focus on character development and values, support for health and well-being, developmental assets and relationship/community building.
Youth Programs:
Building strong kids means supporting and empowering children to develop the values and skills they will carry with them throughout life. Those that are ingrained with strong values become leaders in our communities. A variety of youth and teen program activities (including sport skills, sports leagues, martial arts, youth/teen exercise programs, literacy) provide the framework for instilling our core values of honesty, caring, respect and responsibility.
Aquatics:
Aquatic programming has long been a YMCA mainstay in building healthy spirit, mind and body for children and adults. The Kishwaukee Family YMCA's aquatic programs provide opportunities for holistic health and well-being often with a focus on health seekers and their families.
Camps:
The Kishwaukee Family YMCA Summer Camp develops character, promotse our core values of honesty, caring, respect and responsibility, and allows children to have fun all at the same time. The camping program exists to provide education, promote spiritual awareness and mental development, physical health and well being, social growth and respect for the environment. Through a variety of activities, YMCA camps seek to help participants achieve their fullest potential in spirit, mind, and body while providing safe, high-quality care for children during the summer months.
The Kishwaukee Family YMCA is a charitable association whose mission is to promote Christian principles through quality services and facilities. We strive to enrich the Spirit, Mind, and Body of all of our participants, especially families and children, regardless of ability to pay.
