Return Reference	Explanation
Schedule D, Part V, Line 4 Intended uses of endowment funds	As of December 31, 2014, the Association's spending policy for endowment funds was to not distribute any amounts from the funds until such assets had reached a minimum of $1 million. Such level was met during 2009, due to one estate gift, from which investment income is restricted to capital campaign projects up to $250,000 over a period of no less than 5 years. Spending policy remains to not distribute any amounts other than described above until the remaining portion of the endowment exceeds $1,000,000.
Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 FIN 48 (ASC 740) footnote	The YMCA of Northwest North Carolina (Association) is entitled to exemption from federal and North Carolina income taxation under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code as a charitable organization; accordingly, the accompanying financial statements do not reflect a provision or liability for federal and state income taxes. The Association has determined that it does not have any material unrecognized tax benefits or obligations as of December 31, 2014.

Explanation

Schedule I, Part I, Line 2 Description Of Procedure For Monitoring Use Of Grant Funds

Black Achievers Scholarships - All participating high school seniors who were program participants as of the beginning of the previous school year are eligible for scholarships and/or cash awards. Scholarship recipients must complete a two-phase application process that includes submission of their high school transcript, SAT test scores, an essay that elaborates on the students' aspirations, career options, and strengths and weaknesses. The second phase of the application is an interview process. A point system is followed by the Scholarship Committee to evaluate and rank each applicant on the above areas. Payments are made directly to the college or university which the student will be attending after proof of acceptance is supplied to the Scholarship Committee. Cash awards are also made directly to the college/university each participant is attending on their behalf based on the number of career cluster meetings they have attended since their junior year of high school. Stokes Family YMCA College Scholarships - Applications from local high school seniors are accepted and evaluated by a group of volunteers and staff based on financial need, scholastics, community involvement, volunteer hours, YMCA involvement and spirituality. Finalists are chosen from the applications - 3 from each high school - and interviews are conducted. Three recipients are selected based on how they present themselves in the interviews, if their financial needs have changed, and how they plan to use the scholarship if selected. Cash awards are made directly to the college/university of each recipient to be used for tuition only.

Form 990, Part III, Line 1 ORGANIZATION'S MISSION	Mission: Helping people reach their God-given potential in spirit, mind and body. Values: Caring, honesty, respect, responsibility, and faith are the values we strive to weave into every YMCA program and, we believe, build the moral and ethical foundation for life. Profile: The Young Men's Christian Association of Northwest North Carolina is an association of men, women, and children of all ages, abilities, incomes, races, and religions. Serving Alexander, Davie, Forsyth, Iredell, Stokes, Wilkes, and Yadkin counties, our YMCA, through the dedicated efforts of volunteers, members, and staff, provides programs that promote youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility. The YMCA of Northwest North Carolina is comprised of 14 facility branches, one non-facility branch, a resident camp, and an administrative office. Areas of focus: The Y strives to strengthen the foundations of the communities we serve through programs and services that promote youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility. Members: Throughout 2014, the YMCA of Northwest North Carolina served 111,732 members with 26,866 under the age of 18 and 20,429 over the age of 65. In addition, 37,734 individuals were program members of the YMCA, participating in child care, summer camp, swim lessons, mentoring programs, etc. 72% of program members were under the age of 18. Approximately 15% of all members and 9% of program participants received charitable financial assistance valued at $2.1 million. Donors: 8,625 individuals made a charitable contribution to the YMCA's Annual Giving Campaign. The campaign raised $2,149,637 in support of the Y's financial assistance program. The total dollars raised includes some special events held specifically for the purpose of the campaign. Volunteers: Volunteers are a vital part of the success of the YMCA. In 2014, 3,291 individuals volunteered at the YMCA in roles as varied as youth sports coaches, literacy tutors, mentors to teens, or board/committee members. Volunteer hours given to the YMCA and their value were estimated to be 42,689 hours and $1 million, respectively. Financial Assistance Policy: The heart of the YMCA's mission is to reach out and serve people in our communities who are in need. The YMCA strives to turn no one away due to an inability to pay a program or membership fee. Our Open Doors program allows individuals and families to access YMCA membership and programs on a sliding-fee scale that is designed to respond to individual circumstances (when a parent loses his/her job, when medical bills become overwhelming, when living on a fixed-income, etc.). Applications and awards of financial assistance are reviewed periodically to determine if same level of award is appropriate, i.e. have circumstances changed for the recipient. The YMCA of Northwest North Carolina awarded $2.1 million of financial assistance in 2014 to members and program participants.

Form 990, Part III, Line 4a HEALTHY LIVING	1. The iconic and historic YMCA triangle emphasizes the oneness of spirit, mind and body. YMCA wellness programs achieve this unity through programs that stress proper exercise, nutrition, stress management, avoidance of drug and alcohol abuse and health education, as well as mental and spiritual balance. 2. YMCA facilities are structured to provide members with the opportunity to participate in a wide range of wellness activities such as group exercise classes, strength training, personal fitness, cycling, aquatic programs and other fitness classes. Finding an activity that interests the individual is a critical component to building healthy exercise habits. The Y works with trained, caring staff to connect members with options that become lifestyle choices to help them live healthier, happier lives. 3. Group Exercise Classes are a cornerstone of the YMCA experience. Passionate, certified, and engaged instructors help members discover a love for exercise and continue to challenge themselves physically. With expansive class offerings ranging from Yoga to Boot Camps and Kickboxing, group exercise classes allow members to try new activities, meet new friends, and find the motivation to stay with an exercise program. 4. LIVESTRONG at the YMCA is a physical activity and well-being program designed to help adult cancer survivors achieve their holistic health goals. The research-based, 12-week program offers people affected by cancer a supportive environment to participate in physical activities focused on strengthening the whole person, as well as a free Y membership for the session's duration. During 2014, 136 individuals at 11 branches of the Association participated in the LIVESTRONG at the YMCA program. 5. The YMCA's Diabetes Prevention Program (YDPP) is an innovative behavior change model to help reduce the burden of chronic disease in communities across the nation. The program helps adults at high risk of developing type 2 diabetes reduce their risk for developing the disease by taking steps that will improve their overall health and well-being. The program provides a supportive environment where participants work together in a small group to learn about healthier eating, and increasing their physical activity in order to reduce their risk for developing diabetes. The evidence-based program is delivered over a 12-month period, with 16 weekly sessions, then monthly maintenance. It is classroom based and can be offered in any community setting. Program goals include reducing body weight by 7% and participating in 150 minutes of physical activity per week. To qualify for the program, participants must be 18 or older, overweight (BMI > 25) and at high risk for developing type 2 diabetes or have been diagnosed with prediabetes. The YMCA's Diabetes Prevention Program is nationally supported by the Diabetes Prevention and Control Alliance and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Locally, the YMCA of Northwest North Carolina helped 34 adults in 2014 to improve their health through this program. 6. Through YMCA Races and Triathlon events open to the community and supporting financial assistance scholarships, the Y is able to appeal to a wide range of people to set and achieve physical fitness goals. The 31st Annual YMCA Mistletoe Run was held on Saturday, December 6, 2014. The race supports the Y's efforts to fight childhood obesity in our community, where 41% of children in Forsyth County are considered overweight or obese - more than twice the national average. The race, held at the William G. White, Jr. Family YMCA near downtown Winston-Salem, is a longstanding community event popular among families, first-time runners and walkers, and serious athletes alike. Over 2,800 runners and walkers participate in the event, which draws an even greater crowd to cheer on participants and attend the Mistletoe Run Post Race Party. Other YMCAs within our Association host 13 other community 5K Races and Triathlon events in six counties within the Association's service area, including the Stokes Family YMCA King of the Hill 5K, the Wilkes Family YMCA Turkey Trot 5K and Bandits Triathlon, and the Yadkin Family YMCA Go Far 5K. 7. During 2014, our Association conducted over 30 health fairs, screenings, and information sessions, working with four county health departments, the American Red Cross, the American Cancer Society, Cancer Services, the American Diabetes Association, the American Heart Association, Positive Wellness Alliance, local colleges and universities, NC Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention Coalition, NC Division of Child Development, Smart Start of Forsyth County, area hospitals and businesses to provide important wellness information to the community. Additionally, over 4,000 individuals participated in Healthy Kids Day, a family event held at all branches in the association. 8. Healthy, Fit and Strong is a FREE three month/14-week family-centered and community-based (YMCA) youth obesity prevention program. The program consists of weekly physical activity sessions at school (Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools (WS/FCS)) for students two times each week and eight family fun night sessions for parents and their children at the YMCA including both nutrition education and physical activity for the entire family. We host two family fun nights per month, for both English- and Spanish-speaking families. Student physical activity: The activity program for students is offered two times a week (conducted two times at the school) by trained YMCA staff. Evidenced-based curriculum engages the students while they learn about and participate in physical activity. This component includes activities students can play with their families and others at home or school, such as games using hula hoops, bean bags, cones and jump ropes. Students then participate in physical activity programming in the evenings while parents are in nutrition lessons. Monthly meetings at the Y: Parents and children receive nutrition education sessions at the Y conducted by a registered dietitian using evidenced-based curriculum (e.g. Eat Smart, Move More NC, ChooseMyPlate) with handouts provided. Lessons include information about making healthier choices when dining out, meal planning, and balancing your plate. Students participate in physical activity while parents receive the nutrition education. After the parent session, the dietician will involve the children in a short nutrition session on the same topic presented to the parents. Families then enjoy more time in physical activity together. Families engage in activities they can continue after the program (swimming, Xrkade, rock climbing wall, Zumba) at the evening session at the Y. Families are provided access to the Y during the program. Following the initial three-month program period, additional once weekly physical activity "booster" sessions are provided for students during their recess period. The booster sessions allow the YMCA to return to the school, to follow-up with students' on their physical activity and eating habits. The YMCA also provides structured fitness programs during recess for the entire school year for more than 1500 children. Each child is assessed for fitness levels and nutritional habits. Pre and post testing is performed to measure the outcomes of the program. 9. The YMCA provides Carol M. White Physical Education Grant (PEP Grant) program to all elementary and middle school students in Stokes County. The YMCA of Northwest North Carolina Stokes Family YMCA Branch collaborates with Stokes County Schools to provide a comprehensive approach focusing on physical activity and nutrition for school-aged youth. These activities include: (1) Physical activity time through Healthy, Fit & Strong (programmed recess with nutrition education) and Instant Recess (10 minute physical activity break videos) (2) Equipment to provide physical activity programming for the schools. (3) Faculty development in nutrition and physical activity. 10. The YMCA offers "Get on Your Weigh", a 12-week weight management program with small team wellness coaching, realistic weight loss goal-setting and nutritional classes, in every branch. The program helps participants reach goals they felt they could not achieve on their own. Members report feeling more confident and benefit from higher self-esteem as this program helps get them started on the path to a healthier lifestyle. In 2014, the program helped 171 men and women develop healthy lifestyle changes.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4a HEALTHY LIVING (CONTINUED)	11. Every YMCA Member is offered a free Wellness Orientation with a Wellness Coach. The hour-long sessions are an opportunity to learn to use unfamiliar equipment, feel comfortable in different areas of the buildings and discuss strategies to reach wellness goals. This orientation is the first point of contact for many YMCA members and lays the foundation for a support system as they take full advantage of their Y membership benefits. 12. Adults Sports Leagues, ranging from basketball and volleyball to kickball and dodge ball, provide an opportunity for adults to relive the thrill of being part of a team, expand their social network, and stay active. Friendly competition is a tremendous motivator in helping adults find an exercise program that keeps them engaged and eager to return. 13. The Stokes Family Branch offers a grant-funded outreach program that emphasizes health and physical activity to preschoolers in child care centers throughout Stokes County. A coordinator travels to sites to deliver health information and physical fitness training for children 2 to 5 years old. Participation over the course of the year included 273 children at 10 different sites, 26 classrooms, and 31 teachers. 14. Physical Education is a critical component to helping children succeed not only in an academic setting, but also establish lifelong healthy habits. The Yadkin Family YMCA partners with Yadkin County Schools for students who attend Yadkin Early College to utilize the YMCA facility for physical education activities, serving approximately 30 children each month during the school year. 15. In 2014, the YMCA provided transportation to a group of 12 developmentally disabled students, a teacher and caregivers from the Enrichment Center to the William G. White Jr. Family YMCA (WGW) to participate in group fitness classes. These classes consisted of Zumba, Body Pump, and water aerobics. An Enrichment Center staff has been trained and certified to teach group exercise classes at the Enrichment Center to add wellness to their curriculum. Also, an additional day each month was added when transportation is provided to the students so that they can volunteer at WGW. The students greet members as they enter the facility to help the students build confidence when speaking to others and increase their overall social interaction skills. 16. The YMCA provides nursery and child watch services (children ages 3 months-5 years) so that parents and older siblings may participate in YMCA health and wellness activities. Parents are able to exercise in any area of the building including fitness centers and pools, take group exercise classes, and socialize with friends all with the peace of mind that their child is safe and having fun with Y staff. This time allows parents to focus on themselves so they can return to their families refreshed and better equipped to support their families. 17. The aquatic environment offers a much needed diverse change in everyday life for those with special needs. It opens up opportunities and structure for those challenged in many ways. We work with other agencies and schools to offer a safe, fun environment for mental and physical classes in structured swimming. From autistic individuals, to those with sight impairment, everyone is welcomed to the aquatic environment to learn and grow from their experiences. We have many participants in our YMCAs that also participate in Special Olympics and the Piedmont Plus Senior Games. 18. Warm water recreational activities/exercises help improve activities for daily living and provide rehabilitation activity for those recovering from auto accidents and strokes. Activities also improve range of motion and joint mobility for people with arthritis or senior citizens who wish to improve their level of fitness as well as socialization. 19. The Active Older Adult Program develops seniors into an active, health-conscious social circle of friends and participants. This program is structured for active (or not so active if they so choose) older adults. Organized trips are planned on a monthly basis from September through May for both YMCA members and non-YMCA members. The group is encouraged to attend free monthly health-related workshops presented by various professionals from Wake Forest Baptist Health and Best Health. Fitness classes developed especially for older adults are also available. During 2014, almost 13,000 Silver Sneakers and Active Older Adult members met new friends and maintained their health at Y branches. 20. The N.C. Senior Games are an opportunity for senior citizens to continue their passion for competition and athletic pursuits. The Y supports seniors through training programs and regional competitions so that they are in the best possible shape to compete. The Wilkes Family YMCA is also instrumental in the Blue Ridge Senior Games to provide this opportunity for seniors in their community. 21. Believing that a part of healthy living involves healthy family relationships, YMCA Adventure Guides is a parent-child program designed to help foster understanding and companionship, and to strengthen the relationship between children and their fathers. Participants join a "Circle" of other father/child groups and participate in games, camping trips, ceremonies and family adventures. Adventure Guide compass points - family, nature, community, fun and the YMCA character development values - provide a sense of direction and inspiration for activities. The immediate gain of YMCA Adventure Guides is evident - spending time together - but the long term gains are even more significant in the relationships built between parents and children. In 2014, this program served 283 fathers and their 389 children. 22. Aquatic safety and lifeguard training provides opportunities for individuals to further develop aquatic safety skills for YMCAs, local pools and homeowners' associations. Classes are offered throughout the year. 23. YMCA programs are designed to attract people of all ages, all abilities and all incomes. Financial assistance policies help all people gain access to the YMCA, regardless of income level. During times of financial struggle are often when people need a place to belong, relieve stress in a supportive, healthy environment, and maintain the best possible health. Our financial assistance program allows the Y to ensure our doors are always open for all members of our community, particularly in times of need.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4b YOUTH DEVELOPMENT	Child Care 1. Before/after and out of school programs provide child care for children 5 - 15 years of age meeting the needs of working parents during the school year. Programs include sports, group games, values education, asset development, healthy snacks and tutoring while serving approximately 2,400 youth (370 before school and 2,071 after school) from 42 schools at 27 school sites, 5 YMCA branches, and two community centers. Parent Advisory Committees and the YMCA Model Child Care Curriculum help guide and direct the Before/After School Child Care Programs. 2. In 2014, the YMCA provided a nutritious healthy snack to 19 mainly at risk after school care sites. Overall the program served approximately 512 children. This program was possible due to funding from the NCDHHS Child and Adult Care Food Program. In addition to the healthy snack, the kids also participated in physical activities and healthy lifestyle tutoring. 3. Through collaboration with the Second Harvest Food Bank, we operate a Kids Cafe in the LeDeara Crest community. Kids Cafe is an after school program where students receive assistance with homework, enrichment activities and a nutritious dinner. During 2014, the Cafe served an average of 20 students each week. 4. YMCA programs are designed to a help children reach their full potential in a safe, supportive environment regardless of their family's circumstances. Financial assistance policies help all people gain access to the YMCA, regardless of income level. Education & Leadership 1. Learning should not stop when the school year ends. But some children will return to school in the fall more prepared to succeed than others. Statistically, students from families with fewer resources miss out on key developmental and enrichment opportunities, which can lead to summer learning loss of two months or more in key areas like reading and math. That achievement gap continues to expand over time. If students don't read on grade level by the end of third grade, the changes they will graduate high school decrease dramatically. The YMCA Summer Learning Academy is working to change those odds. In 2014, 242 academically at-risk children attended the six-week program, which expanded to five sites at local elementary schools. The program's curriculum includes math and reading tutoring by certified teachers, health and wellness information on nutrition and physical activity, computer labs, and enrichment components such as science, character development, the arts and humanities, as well as educational field trips. As part of the program, parents attended weekly meetings, offered in English and Spanish, which provided information on family topics like how to best communicate with teachers or support children in school. The program is available at no cost to families. Since similar YMCA programs began in 2007, more than 70% of the participants have increased and/or maintained their grade level in math and/or reading based on pre-/post-tests. 2. The goals of the YMCA's 21st Century Community Learning Centers' program are to provide a safe, structured, healthy after-school environment in Title I schools for at-risk students and their families that is focused on academics. The Title I schools being served are located in neighborhoods or serve students from neighborhoods that have many or all of the risk factors stated below: (a) low achievement, (b) high poverty, (c) juvenile crime, (d) high level of students performing below grade level, (e) high drop-out rate, (f) high teen pregnancy rates, (g) high student mobility, (h) under skilled caregivers, (i) limited English proficiency, and (j) poor health and nutrition practices. In 2013 and continuing in 2014, the Y became lead contractor for NC State University in a 21st Century Community Learning Center (Juntos) with a focus on middle and high school Hispanic and Latino students. The combined programs (Juntos and the Y's CCLC) serve two high schools, three middle schools, and three elementary schools during after-school hours Monday through Friday with a current enrollment of approximately 400 students, but more than 800 students served throughout 2014. The program components consist of homework assistance and tutoring, STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) activities, a healthy snack, physical fitness, health emphasis, enrichment, and family nights. The programs aim to lower the achievement gap, reduce disciplinary actions and involvement in juvenile crime, improve school attendance, increase parental involvement, improve health and nutrition practices and provide strong character development opportunities. 3. Our Youth & Government Program introduces local middle and high school students to the legislative process of city, county, state, national, and international governments through a hands-on approach. Programs such as Youth Legislature (culminating with a weekend trip to the state capital in Raleigh where the students author, introduce and vote to accept or reject bills of their own creation), Conference on National Affairs, and Model UN enable young people to prepare for moral and political leadership through training in the theory and practice of developing public policy. Students sharpen their leadership skills and improve their problem solving and critical thinking abilities while becoming more adept at debating and public speaking. In 2014, 480 students from middle and high schools within our Association participated in these programs, many returning home with recognition awards and having been elected to a state office by their peers. 4. The Black Achievers Program gives teens (9th - 12th grade) in Forsyth County direct access to 39 volunteer leaders (adult achievers) representing business and industry, public health and safety, education and community based organizations. Our volunteers serve as role models and nurturing figures who emphasize the importance of education. The program provides career exploration with student achievers working with adult achievers to learn about different career paths - architecture and engineering, health and medical, business, education, computers, etc. Additionally, college preparation is encouraged with SAT preparation and college tours being a part of the nine-month program. The Achievers program has 6 school club offerings at Carter G. Woodson, Carver, East Forsyth, North Forsyth, Parkland, and Winston Salem Preparatory Academy. These students meet monthly and participate in workshops on site as well as offsite field trips and college tours. The graduating teens compete for college scholarships and awards. In 2014, 8 seniors received scholarships totaling $17,700. The Latino Achievers program is a mentoring program for Hispanic ESL high school students (grades 7-12). The program is designed to address the growing drop-out rate of Hispanic students in Forsyth County high schools. The program is offered at Reynolds, North Forsyth, East Forsyth, Mt. Tabor, West Forsyth, Carver, Kennedy, Glenn and Parkland Magnet High Schools as well as East Forsyth middle and South East Middle school. Latino Achievers partner with Hispanic and bilingual professionals (Adult Achievers) in career fields such as finance, media/communications, business, health/medical, education, and law/government and encourages academic achievement, social development and personal growth among Hispanic youth. Latino Achievers uses a career-based curriculum where students meet during school hours once a month, as well as a diverse choice of monthly educational field trips and an end-of-year recognition banquet. In 2014, 773 teens got a taste of post-secondary education and career options while learning the tools they need to succeed through these two Achievers programs. The Achievers Programs are funded by United Way and also sponsored by the Hispanic League of the Piedmont Triad. 5. Helping children become strong leaders for the future is a community effort. The YMCA takes a proactive approach to mentor-ship and leadership development programs and provides financial assistance so that all have access, regardless of income level.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4b YOUTH DEVELOPMENT (CONTINUED)	Swim, Sports & Play 1. Team sports are provided at both the youth and adult levels. The youth basketball program had over 3,300 boys and girls under the age of 18 participate. Each youngster played a minimum of one-half of each game with a values session conducted before each game. The program collaborates with local school systems and churches in order to have adequate gym space. Other team sports include youth soccer (2,452), flag football (700), youth baseball (675), volleyball (574), and lacrosse (175). These youth teams were led by over 930 volunteer coaches. With all YMCA sports, the intent is for the participants to have fun while learning to play the sport in an environment that places winning as secondary. Parents and volunteers work together to make each season special for every team member. 2. Lessons in swimming teach aquatic skills to youth and adults (ages 6 months through senior citizens). Swimming is a life-long activity that improves health and fitness in addition to teaching kids and families to be safe in and around water. At the Davie Family YMCA, a partnership with the Davie County Schools and the United Way of Davie County provides every 2nd grade student with the opportunity to learn how to be safe in and around water through the Water Safety Education Program. In 2014, 519 students received this instruction at a value of over $62,000. 3. Over 200 children and adults of all income levels took part in one free week of water safety awareness/swim lessons at the Wilkes Family YMCA. Additionally, we partnered with the Wilkes County Schools' More at Four Program to provide swim lessons for 450 pre-K students. These free services have a value of over $39,000 and are funded in part by the United Way of Wilkes County ($22,100). 4. Developmental and competitive swimming provides activities for swimmers of all ages from four years old to adult through our swim team, TYDE. This program not only improves physical fitness and enhances aquatic skills, but also teaches the importance of teamwork, goal orientation and time management. Over 700 swimmers were directly involved with our year-round YMCA swim team with an additional 1700+ area summer league and club swimmers involved in YMCA sponsored competitive events. During 2014, our YMCA swimmers participated in various national events. Of 11 seniors on the TYDE team, 6 will be receiving college scholarships for their swimming efforts. YMCA aquatic facilities are also utilized by area high school swim teams for practices and competitions. 5. Sports, swimming and exposure to water safety are critical to children's development. YMCA programs provide financial assistance to help all people gain access to the YMCA, regardless of income level. Camping 1. Day camping provides full day recreational, educational and/or specialized child care for youth ages 5 - 13 (14 and 15 year-olds enter our Counselor-In-Training (CIT) Program to become summer camp counselors at age 16). Multiple day camp and sports camp sites across 5 counties provide a variety of opportunities during the summer for group games, swimming, and arts and crafts. Educational camp collaborates with local schools and summer school programs to provide a summer enrichment program. Sports camps teach basketball, soccer, volleyball and good sportsmanship skills. Approximately 970 youth were served each week. 2. Resident camping is designed to help campers enhance their spiritual awareness, mental development, physical well-being, self-esteem, social growth, and respect for the environment. In 2014, summer camper weeks (one child attending camp for one week) at YMCA Camp Hanes totaled over 3,000. There were 64 teens participating in leadership development programs, over 400 teen campers, 1 international camp counselor, and 273 American Diabetic Association campers. The goals of the program include teaching life skills while developing an appreciation of nature and an understanding of positive group living and independence. 3. Adventure trips, horseback riding, paintball and 5 stand skeet shooting programs are offered during summer camp sessions to give many youth their first experience ever with caving, white water rafting, horses, and gun safety. In 2014, over 450 campers participated in these specialty programs while attending YMCA Camp Hanes. 4. The camp experience is monumental to many children's development. It builds confidence, individuality and self-esteem that stay with the child for the rest of their life. Without the YMCA's financial assistance, many families would not be able to provide a camp experience for children.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4c SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY	1. Financial Assistance Policy: The heart of the YMCA's mission is to reach out and serve people in our communities who are in need. The YMCA strives to turn no one away due to an inability to pay a program or membership fee. Our Open Doors Program allows individuals and families to access YMCA membership and programs on a sliding-fee scale that is designed to respond to individual circumstances (when a parent loses his/her job, when medical bills become overwhelming, when living on a fixed-income, etc.). Applications and awards of financial assistance are reviewed periodically to determine if same level of award is appropriate, i.e. have circumstances changed for the recipient. During 2014, $2,120,519 of financial assistance was provided for Y programs and membership fees to 18,279 individuals. 2. At YMCA Camp Hanes, the Outdoor Education Program takes classroom lessons and brings them to life with educational, hands-on activities that complement the curriculum based on the North Carolina State Standard Course of Study for Education. Students begin to understand what they're learning from a textbook in a new and different way. Time at camp allows students to see each other in a different setting that promotes and encourages cooperation, teamwork, and understanding of their own abilities and potential. Trained professionals facilitate the learning experience through group work, guided discovery, participatory discussions, and fun activities. In 2014, over 4,000 students from 40 schools experienced this hands-on learning at YMCA Camp Hanes. 3. Raising literacy levels is an integral part of our mission of "Helping people reach their God-given potential in spirit, mind, and body." The YMCA of Northwest North Carolina provides adult and family literacy services at no cost to participants through our Literacy Initiative program. Program staff recruit, train, and support volunteers who tutor individuals or small groups of adults in 40-hour programs of English as a Second Language and basic reading skills. In 2014, the program also helped participants improve jog-seeking skills. Program staff and 91 trained volunteers tutored 167 adults (52 Basic Reading and 115 ESL) helping them reach their goals of entering employment, job training or GED programs, or becoming more involved in their children's education. The Literacy Initiative's El Nido Family Literacy Program at the Ledges Apartments' Children Center, with 5 volunteers, provided homework help and literacy enrichment activities for 45 preschool and elementary children. 4. Pioneering Healthier Communities (PHC) is a coalition of community leaders dedicated to creating policy and environmental change that will improve the health and wellness of the community. Spearheaded by the YMCA of Northwest North Carolina, PHC focuses on physical activity, the built environment and nutrition to create a healthier community. The coalition engages over 40 community leaders with a diverse range of expertise. The PHC coalition in Winston-Salem/Forsyth County includes the mayor, a county commissioner, a school board member, directors and leadership from Winston-Salem/Forsyth County City /County Planning Department, the Department of Transportation, Recreation and Parks Department, leadership from Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools, physicians and researchers from the major medical centers, local business leaders and staff from local colleges/universities. This group has had successes such as implementing Instant Recess (a 10-minutes physical activity break) in all local middle schools, launching a worksite wellness program for the community, and creating access for WIC and EBT vouchers (formerly food stamps) at the local farmer's market. The coalition has also been involved in supporting the city/county long-range plan that includes a section on health and wellness considerations when planning and zoning. 5. During 2014, 378 individuals were members of the Y through the YMCA Military Outreach Initiative benefitting families of active and deployed soldiers. Launched in October 2008, the YMCA Military Outreach Initiative provides government funding for eligible military families to receive free memberships at full-facility YMCAs in their communities. 6. YMCA Camp Hanes partnered with Camp Corral in 2014 to host a unique group of campers: 226 children of wounded, disabled or fallen military service members. The fun-filled week included a variety of fun camp activities, including a Hero Day ceremony on Wednesday, July 9. For the summer of 2014, YMCA Camp Hanes was one of 20 accredited YMCA and 4-H camps across the nation partnering with Camp Corral-a free, one-of-a-kind, weeklong summer camp for military children, with priority registration given to children of wounded, disabled or fallen military service members. At Camp Corral kids are free to be kids, away from the day-to-day challenges they face in their military families. Kids participate in traditional outdoor activities such as archery, canoeing and swimming, and have the opportunity to meet other kids who share similar family situations. 7. In 2014, the YMCA of Northwest North Carolina hosted the fall Christian Leadership Conference (CLC) at Camp Hanes. 130 attendees from approximately 20 different YMCAs and four states attended training workshops with a Christian emphasis in programming and fellowship. CLC is a longstanding program in the YMCA, and due to the many successful CLCs we have hosted, our Association has been selected again to host the event in the fall of 2015. 8. The YMCA of Norwest North Carolina has strong international ties through a long standing relationship with the YMCA of the Ukraine. Our relationship has supported strong programs in HIV/AIDS education, youth sports, camping and the arts in the Ukraine. Additionally, this relationship has provided internship opportunities for both organizations, as well as service learning camps for our own young people. 9. In recognition of the National Day of Prayer, each of the YMCA facilities hosted an annual Prayer Breakfast in May. Also in 2014, the 1st Annual Come Alive! Community Prayer Breakfast was held in Winston-Salem as a collaborative effort between the YMCA of Northwest North Carolina, Love Out Loud and the New Canaan Society. These events combined brought together over 1,100 members of the communities we serve to pray, fellowship, and hear speakers and music. 10. Non-summer Conference/Retreat Programs are designed to allow campers the same opportunities as a resident camper except on a smaller scale over a long weekend. The Conference Center at YMCA Camp Hanes was utilized by over 8,000 individuals from 70 different groups in 2014.

	Healthy Living-The Y is a leading voice on health and well-being. We bring families closer together, encourage good health, and foster connections through fitness, sports, fun, and shared interests. As a result, 149,466 people in our community received the support, guidance, and resources they need to achieve greater health in spirit, mind, and body. This is particularly important as our nation struggles with an obesity crisis and increasingly high rates of preventable diseases, families struggle with work/life balance, and individuals search for personal fulfillment. The Y is a place for people of all ages to pursue wellness goals, whether it is young children learning lifelong healthy habits, adults working to prevent chronic disease through exercise and nutrition, or seniors maintaining a high quality of life through physical activity and friendship. Our programs are accessible, affordable, and open to all faiths, backgrounds, abilities, and income levels. In 2014, we provided $2,120,519 in financial assistance to people who otherwise would have faced economic barriers to participation. For additional details regarding these critical programs and their impact, see Schedule O.

	Youth Development - Our YMCA is committed to nurturing the potential of every child and teen. We believe that all kids deserve the opportunity to discover who they are and what they can achieve. That's why we help young people cultivate the values, skills, and relationships that lead to positive behaviors, better health, and educational achievement. Our YMCA programs (such as Child Care, Camping, Youth Sports, Youth and Government, Summer Learning Academies, Aquatics and water safety, and Black and Latino Achievers) offer a range of experiences that enrich cognitive, social, physical, and emotional growth. Expenses include subsidies and direct financial assistance that make participation possible for many of the young people we engage. For additional details regarding these critical programs and their impact, see Schedule O.

4c	(Code: ) (Expenses $ 630,633 including grants of $ 37,759 ) (Revenue $ 583,136 )
	Social Responsibility - Our YMCA believes in giving back and supporting our neighbors. We have been listening and responding to our communities' most critical social needs for 125 years. Y programs, such as our literacy initiative, English as a second language, Pioneering Healthier Communities, outdoor education, and partnerships with under-served communities are examples of how we deliver training, resources, and support that empower our neighbors to effect change, bridge gaps, and overcome obstacles. In 2014, we engaged over 13,000 YMCA members, participants, and volunteers in activities that strengthen our community and pave the way for future generations to thrive. For additional details regarding these critical programs and their impact, see Schedule O.
