Explanation
YMCA senior programs stress socialization, fitness, and opportunities for volunteerism. Senior members benefit from reduced membership fees. Twice a month, the Mens Discussion Group provides the opportunity for retired business and professional men to come together in fellowship and challenging debate on topics of common concern. In addition to specialized classes for adults suffering from Parkinsons, post stroke, and osteoporosis, specifically designed land and water fitness classes allow this age group the opportunity to stay strong and social. Adults who need to strengthen their bones partake in a Healthy Bones class sponsored by the Madison Health Department, and community members with special cognitive needs participate in fitness classes, such as SWIM, Inc. for water therapy. These programs are alternatives for people who cannot usually participate in mainstream exercise classes. YMCA family programs help people grow as responsible family members. They provide children and their parents with activities that foster understanding and companionship. Activities are planned to bring groups of families together to provide a support system. Parents have an opportunity to learn from each other and from their children in a non-threatening, common environment.At year-end 2012, 10,139 adults, teens, children and seniors were members of the Madison Area YMCA. Of these members, nearly one-half were younger than 18 years of age. Program enrollment during the year totaled 7,161 children. The Madison Area YMCA employed 476 people in 2012, most of whom live and volunteer in the communities that we serve. All employees are members. The Madison Area YMCA serves Madison, The Chathams, Florham Park, Millington, Gillette, Stirling, Green Village, New Vernon, Convent Station and East Hanover, an area encompassing over 75,000 residents within Morris County, NJ.
COMMUNITY BENEFIT STATEMENT
The Madison Area YMCA, founded in 1873, is a charitable community service organization that is at the heart of community life in our service area of Morris County, NJ. We work to meet health, social, developmental, wellness and recreation needs of people of all faiths, races, abilities, ages and incomes. No one is turned away from membership for an inability to pay. The Madison Area YMCA is led by a volunteer Board of Directors whose members donate their time, talent and resources to help lead the organization. More detailed information about the organization is available at www.madisonareaymca.org.The Borough of Madison has identified the Madison Area YMCA as a community treasure. The Madison Area YMCA collaborates with numerous community programs including special needs groups, local universities, the Mayors Wellness Initiative and the Board of Education, just to name a few. The Family Center is viewed as an unparalleled community center, with a variety of free meeting rooms available to local service organizations. Health Screenings and lectures open to all are held in conjunction with area hospitals and health care providers. In coordination with YMCAs nationally, Healthy Kids Day is a free community event that promotes healthy lifestyles, family connections, recreation, and nutrition. Community activities benefit thousands of people annually with discounted membership, childcare, programs and discounted or free activities. A breakdown of total community benefit that reflects measurable statistics follows, however, it could be supported that the entire cost of the operation is for community benefit. For these purposes community benefit is defined as the total cost of providing free or reduced cost services within and outside of our facilities:Program, Child Care and Membership Discounts:$495,575Community Events and Activities:$51,190Community Use of Buildings: $48,006Volunteer Time:$414,585Total Community Benefit 2012:$ 1,009,356In 2012, $657,583 or 7.2% of the organizations total expenses of $9,115,063 was spent on administrative expenses.The Madison Area YMCA seeks funding through charitable contributions and grants on an ongoing basis. These funds, raised through the Annual Campaign, selected fundraising events and ongoing major gifts cultivation, are used to provide financial assistance to children, families and other adults regardless of income or background. In particular, contributed income helps cover the cost of YMCA childcare for low-income families in need of quality care and early childhood education during their often long work hours. Contributions also help fund endowments, special outreach or wellness programs and selected capital projects. Donations are accepted online at madisonareaymca.org/giving.Financial assistance is available to anyone who resides or works within the Madison Area YMCA service area and is provided based on demonstrated need. Assistance is available for membership, programs, childcare and day camp. In awarding financial assistance, the YMCA uses a sliding scale based on the NJ Department of Labor gross median income table. Percentages of assistance are determined based on family size and total household income. Special circumstances and expenses may also be taken into consideration when determining an award. To reach as many recipients as possible, we request that everyone pay at least a minimal amount of the program or service fee, unless a member becomes unemployed. The Madison Area YMCA provides six months of 100% membership assistance to any member who becomes unemployed.The Madison Area YMCA is committed to raising awareness of its charitable mission through its Annual Campaign, where a team of volunteers share the YMCAs case for support throughout the membership and community. In 2012, Annual Fund donations totaled $383,000 from 911 donors, of whom 273 were new donors. The YMCA raised $26,089 through staff donors. The success of the Annual Campaign is measured annually by the number of lives that the YMCA is able to touch. Contributions of any amount make a difference.At the Family Center, direct financial assistance of $146,550 helped 473 area residents become healthier with Y membership and programs. At the same time, $275,428 of direct financial assistance was given to families at the YMCAs F.M. Kirby Childrens Center. The F.M. Kirby Childrens Center is a full service early childhood education center that provides quality childcare to approximately 300 infants through school age children. Forty-eight children received direct financial assistance toward their tuition fees in 2012. These children represented 16% of the total population and the average financial assistance awarded was 69.5% of tuition fees.The central focus of our early childhood education and childcare programs at the F. M. Kirby Childrens Center is to foster growth and development, not only in the children but also in their parents and families. These educational programs help children develop moral and ethical behavior, self-esteem and leadership aptitude. Special trainings and programs on effective parenting are offered and through day-to-day communications between teachers and parents help optimize these young childrens learning and development. In most instances parents of the children in our programs manage full-time jobs (some parents balance more than one job); the support they receive at the F.M. Kirby Childrens Center assures that their children are thriving in a caring, structured environment.Day Camp, with weekly sessions throughout the summer, is offered at both the Family Center and the F.M. Kirby Childrens Center for preschoolers through teenagers, with 136 campers per week. In 2012, 205 weeks of summer camp were funded, providing busy working parents peace-of-mind knowing that their children were in a safe, structured environment that furthered their healthy development. The Madison Area YMCA joins YMCAs across the country in shifting how we focus our work inside and outside the Y to engage health seekers, who we define as all children, youth, teens, adults and families whose successful pursuit of health and well-being requires continuously supportive relationships and environments. Our Member Activity Plan, which allows non-members to attend classes for a low cost, is part of our Healthy Living initiative. Members and non-members participated in healthy living challenges, which include nutrition counseling, exercise tips, personal training sessions and grocery store field trips that empower participants to lead healthier lives.YMCA youth programs promote an appreciation of one's personal worth and value. Whatever the sport -- aquatics, gymnastics, gym sports, field sports or martial arts -- the YMCAs intent is to engage the full and equal participation of all. Every child has the opportunity to learn new skills and to participate in every game or meet. Aquatic programs provide both swimming and water safety skills. Win or lose, YMCA youth programs emphasize development of skills, health and fitness, safety, cooperation, self-esteem and respect for others.YMCA teen programs provide dependable, healthy adult role models to help teens develop self-confidence, cooperation, respect for one's body, good citizenship and a strong work ethic. These programs provide opportunities for youth to volunteer to serve others in the Y and the broader community. Inter-Y activities provide the opportunity to meet and be with youth from different backgrounds to increase cultural and socio-economic understanding. The organization is the largest employer of teens in our service area, with this age group comprising 27% of our part time staff. Our commitment to teen employment provides this age group with the opportunity to learn specialized skills such as lifeguarding; social interaction with the varied age groups of our membership; and the professionalism and responsibility that comes with employment.In 2012, a generous donor provided the funding for an expanded Teen Center. Dedicated in September 2012, the Boszhardt Family Teen Center at the Madison Area YMCA is the only teen center in Madison and is operated in partnership with the Borough of Madison. The center is open afternoons and Friday nights and during school-year breaks for teens to socialize in a structured, chaperoned environment. As part of the arrangement with the Borough of Madison, admission to the Teen Center and events is free for all Madison residents, regardless of Y membership status. Non-members from the service area pay a nominal guest fee to attend Friday evening events. Additionally, all seventh graders from the Ys service area receive free limited membership during the school year. Part of a state-wide Y initiative, this complimentary membership is designed to keep pre-teens engaged with health, fitness and positive social opportunities during this crucial time.The YMCAs social development efforts are focused on strengthening the family, develop
