Explanation
ORGANIZATION'S MISSION
FORM 990 - ORGANIZATION'S MISSION
FOR OVER 139 YEARS THE YMCA OF SOUTHWEST ILLINOIS HAS BEEN TRANSFORMING THE LIVES OF PEOPLE THROUGHOUT THE METRO-EAST. OUR MISSION IS "TO PUT CHRISTIAN PRINCIPLES IN PRACTICE THROUGH PROGRAMS THAT BUILD HEALTH SPIRIT MIND AND BODY FOR ALL." ROOTED IN CHRISTIAN PRINCIPLES, OUR PROGRAMS DO MORE THAN JUST PROVIDE DISTRACTION; THEY CREATE MOMENTS OF REVOLUTION, MOMENTS OF TRANSFORMATION, IN THE CHARACTER OF THE INDIVIDUAL, THE VALUES OF A FAMILY, AND IN THE CULTURE OF OUR COMMUNITIES. WHAT STARTED AS A MOVEMENT WITHOUT A PLACE TO CALL HOME, HAS NOW GROWN TO INCLUDE 7 LOCATIONS AND OVER 60 PROGRAM SITES---THROUGHOUT OUR REGION. BECAUSE THE YMCA IS NOT ABOUT A BUILDING, WE DELIVER SERVICES TO SCHOOLS, CHURCHES, PARKS, LIBRARIES, HOSPITALS, PARKING-LOTS AND EVEN IN REMOTE VILLAGES IN GUATEMALA--- THE YMCA IS A MOVEMENT THAT IS NOT SUBJECT TO A PLACE OR SITE--- FOLLOWING THE LEAD OF OUR PREDECESSORS WE GO WHERE THE CHALLENGES ARE, WHERE PEOPLE GATHER, WHERE SPIRITS, MINDS, AND BODIES CAN BE STRENGTHENED.
FIRST ACHIEVEMENT DESCRIPTION
FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4A
THEIR FACE IN THE WATER FOR THE FIRST TIME WHILE BLOWING BUBBLES--- AND ABOUT 350 YOUNG PEOPLE STAYED WITH US AFTER SCHOOL AS THEIR PARENTS MADE THEIR WAY HOME FROM WORK. DURING THE SUMMERTIME, 1,600 YOUTH JOINED US AS WE MADE CRAFTS, SANG SONGS, TOOK FIELD-TRIPS, AND LEARNED HOW TO BE CARING, HONEST, RESPECTFUL, AND RESPONSIBLE. FOR SOME STUDENTS, OUR HELP WAS MORE BASIC AND SIGNIFICANTLY TRANSFORMATIONAL. FACING THE PROSPECT OF FAILING SCHOOL, FAMILIES TURNED TO THE Y FOR HELP WITH MATH, SCIENCE, AND ENGLISH HOMEWORK. AT A LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL, THE YMCA HELPED MAKE A WAY FOR THE DREAM OF A COLLEGE EDUCATION TAKE ROOT. THESE AND MANY OTHER PROGRAMS SET THE STAGE FOR REDIRECTING AND AFFIRMING A "CHILD IN THE WAY HE SHOULD GO" EVEN WHEN THE GOING GETS TOUGH. STEPHANIE LET ME GIVE YOU JUST ONE EXAMPLE OF THE POWER OF ONE-LIFE-CHANGED. STEPHANIE WAS A TYPICAL TEEN---SHE WAS PARTICIPATING IN OUR COLLEGE READINESS PROGRAM WHEN THE UNTHINKABLE HAPPEN---BOTH OF HER PARENTS WERE KILLED. AS SHE BEGAN TO SPIRAL, THE YMCA HELPED STABILIZE AND SUPPORT HER AND GET HER BACK ON TRACK TOWARD A COLLEGE EDUCATION. HER NEW SUPPORT TEAM HELPED PROVIDE A PART-TIME JOB, AND WHEN IT CAME TIME TO SAY GOODBYE, IT WAS HER YMCA FAMILY THAT PACKED HER UP AND SENT HER ON HER WAY TO MISSOURI VALLEY COLLEGE. IN HER OWN WORDS SHE STATES, "I DON'T KNOW WHERE I'D BE WITHOUT MY Y FAMILY. I HOPE THAT ONE DAY I CAN HELP SOMEONE AS MUCH AS YOU HELPED ME."
SECOND ACHIEVEMENT DESCRIPTION
FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4B
FACILITIES---WE HAD OVER 1 MILLION LAST YEAR---AND BY ASKING OUR MEMBERS TO "DO LIFE TOGETHER" AS THEY COMPLETE A WELLNESS JOURNEY. NEARLY 6,000 INDIVIDUALS JOINED A SMALL GROUP TO HELP MEET HEALTH AND WELLNESS GOALS THAT INCLUDED ITEMS NOT NECESSARILY FOCUSED ON PHYSICAL HEALTH. WE ENCOURAGED THEM TO READ, MEETING OTHERS, SERVE, AND SHARE THEIR JOURNEY--- OUR HOPE IS THAT WE COULD TAP INTO THEIR INTERNAL MOTIVATORS--- RESULTING IN A STRONGER: SPIRIT, MIND, AND BODY. LAURA SO, WHAT DOES A STRONG SPIRIT, MIND, AND BODY LOOK LIKE? MEET LAURA. WHEN SHE CAME TO THE Y SHE WAS JUST LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO WORK-OUT, LOSE WEIGHT, AND "GET HEALTHY". AS SHE GOT ENGAGED, SHE FOUND MUCH MORE THAT JUST A GYM. SHE DISCOVERED THAT THE Y WAS INTEREESTED IN TRANSFORMING HER COMMUNITY, THAT FOOD WAS BEING GROWN WITH THE INTENTION OF DONATING IT TO A LOCAL PANTRY, THAT MEMBERS WERE TUTORING KIDS, AND THAT FOOD WAS BEING DISTRIBUTED TO THOSE IN NEED. SHE STATES IT BEST WHEN SHE SAID,"THIS PLACE HAS BEEN A CATALYST FOR CHANGE IN MY LIFE. I HAVE LEARNED THAT LIFE IS ABOUT SO MUCH MORE THAN JUST ME. I'M PROUD TO BE PART OF SUCH AN AMAZING PLACE WHERE PEOPLE ARE ALL COMING TOGETHER FOR A COMMON CAUSE... TO STRENGTHEN OUR COMMUNITY.

WE ASK THEM TO CONSIDER A STRUGGLING FAMILY DURING THANKSGIVING---AND A CHILD ON SCHOLARSHIP DURING CHRISTMAS. DURING FEBRUARY AND MARCH WE INVITE THEM TO JOIN THOUSANDS AS WE RAISE FUNDS TO HELP PROVIDE SCHOLARSHIPS FOR STRUGGLING FAMILIES/KIDS. THESE ARE NOT "GIMMICKS" TO SQUEEZE MORE MONEY OUT OF PEOPLE.
