YMCA of Delaware Do More 24 Delaware 2023

Organization Mission:

The YMCA of Delaware’s mission is to empower youth, foster healthy living, and promote strong communities. Our vision is a healthy, inclusive community where all people reach their full potential.

Help Make Camp Accessible to All!


Every year, YMCA summer camps across Delaware and at YMCA Camp Tockwogh provide a life changing experience for thousands of local youth and teens. Last year alone over 2,500 youth participated in YMCA summer camp and 1 in 4 of our campers received financial assistance. 

Donor support enables us to provide scholarships to families in need and ensures that ALL families have access to critical summer childcare this year. Most importantly, donors allow campers across our association to have a summer they will never forget and create lasting memories. 

Every $50 you donate supports one day of summer camp and every $250 donated provides one week of camp scholarship to a family in need. 

Be the change and make your gift today!
About YMCA of Delaware

Established in 1889, the YMCA of Delaware impacts the lives of over 160,000 individuals each year through its 7 full-service branches, an urban youth development center, two outdoor recreation complexes, an overnight resident camp, and numerous school partnership sites across the state. We believe our community is strongest when everyone has access to opportunities to learn, grow, and thrive.

For more than 135 years, we've remained committed to empowering youth, fostering healthy living, and building stronger, more equitable communities throughout Delaware. Our programs address critical community needs by preventing chronic diseases like diabetes, promoting educational equity, and ensuring all Delawareans have access to transformative experiences. In 2025 alone, we provided $6.5 million in financial assistance, making life-changing YMCA services accessible to over 21,000 youth and adults statewide.
