Buy a Y membership for a community member in need and have your contribution matched dollar for dollar 10 times by generous local businesses (up to $100,000)!
For example, this means if you sponsor one youth monthly pass for $33.50, then $335.00 will be donated towards providing YMCA memberships for youth, families and seniors in our community. Donate below! These sponsored memberships will offer priceless opportunities for community connection for children in need, families new to Sault Ste. Marie and seniors looking for a place to belong.
*All contributions are eligible for a charitable tax receipt.
Your support will help secure 169 local jobs, provide over 500 much-needed daycare spots, and maintain a community centre that benefits people of all ages and socioeconomic backgrounds. You can purchase a pay-it-forward membership until July 16 at 5:00 p.m.
NOTE: we are thrilled to announce that SooToday readers have stepped up! In just the first 12 hours, we have reached our goal of $10,000 in reader contributions - unlocking $100,000 in total contributions to the YMCA from the businesses and families listed below. But don't stop! Every sponsor of a membership helps!
A sincere thank you to our community partners who have made this membership match possible:
BMO Nesbitt Burns
Century 21
Soo Foundry & Machine Ltd.
Soo Mill / The Hollingsworth Family
The Hilsinger Family
The Horbatuk Family
The Schikofsky Family

Our Vision
A connected YMCA for a healthier Sault Ste Marie.
Our Values
Values are cornerstones that make our society safe and workable. They are the principles of thought and conduct that help distinguish right from wrong and provide a foundation for decision making. Values, which are sometimes referred to as character, are the basis of who we are, how we live and how we treat others. The values we try to impart at the YMCA, through character development, are the following six "Core Values":
At the YMCA we believe that living with and acting on our core values contributes to the development of a healthy self-esteem and overall personal happiness.
