Financial Assistance
Thanks to funds from our annual fundraising efforts the Rogue Valley Family YMCA is able to provide financial assistance for children, teens, adults and families who cannot afford the full cost of a Y membership and/or programs. The amount of assistance available does vary based on the funds that have been raised for this purpose each year. Assistance is made available until funds have been depleted. All assistance is applied to future programs or monthly dues and is not back dated.
We encourage all who need assistance to apply. It is our goal that no one is turned away for an inability to pay, but we understand that at times we do not have enough available funds to make this happen for everyone. Please know that although we strive to make the Y available to all we are only able to grant financial assistance if we have available funds. Every dollar we award is funded by the gifts from individual donors, foundations, and grants.
We do not offer Financial Assistance Scholarships for a few programs such as personal training, single day programs, membership day passes, facility rentals, and any fundraising efforts (i.e. Pear Blossom Runs, Mayor’s Cup) as these programs are designed to raise funds to be given away.
Help is based on demonstrated need and the YMCA’s ability to fund requests. Applying for assistance does not guarantee that an award will be made.
Please Note: As part of the below registration process for financial assistance, we will be requesting proof of income for all adults in the household and any award letters for any government assistance (ERDC, SNAP, TANF, etc.) you may be receiving. You will not be able to submit your registration without these documents. File formats accepted: JPEG, PDF, and PNG

If requesting assistance for membership and/or multiple programs you will need to apply for each individually.
