No YMCA would survive without
contributions.  Fundraising, including
our annual appeal, accounts for over
17% of  our total revenue.  Our YMCA
hosts a variety of special events and
campaigns to achieve this demanding
goal year after year.   From our annual
appeal, to our endowment fund, your
gifts help us to "Secure the Future" of
the Penobscot Bay YMCA.
