To earn this distinction, the YMCA formed a No Place for Hate Committee, adopted a resolution pledging to create a more inclusive community, and implemented a number of projects promoting respect for differences. The Y is a cause-driven organization that is for youth development, for healthy living and for social responsibility, so creating an environment where all members feel welcome and accepted through the No Place for Hate campaign is a perfect complement to our mission.

From exercise to education, volleyball to volunteering, preschool to preventive health, we don’t just strengthen bodies—we strengthen entire communities. Through our Annual Campaign, funds are raised which enable us to offer Financial Assistance to 1-in-4 people that we serve. Your donations during last year’s campaign made it possible for thousands of children, families and older adults to share the Y experience. This year, as part of our campaign, we want you to think of the Y as so much more than a gym. Think of us as cause – a cause worth investing in. Our goal is to raise $134,000. Give to our Annual Campaign and help us ensure that no one is turned away from Y programs and services because of an inability to pay. Support the Hatboro Area Annual Campaign and spread the message that the Y is so much more.
