Donor Recognition

On behalf of the people touched by our programs and services, we would like to take this opportunity to thank and acknowledge our 2025 Annual Giving Campaign donors for their support. Because of your generous donations, we are able to give the YMCA experience to those who might not otherwise have access.

How can I support the YMCA?

LU Interactive Gym

The next investment we are securing funding for is the LU Interactive Gym. The LU is an interactive playground that uses lights, sounds and video to transform any gym into an engaging, immersive video game. It can also convert space into other uses such as a movie theater, stage, dance floor, fitness class or presentation area. This unique technology brings together physical activity, education, social skills, entertainment and events all into one captivating platform.

Thank You to Lu Interactive Donors
