Move to Give

What Moves you to Give?

Thanks to your incredible generosity, we’ve raised over $135,000 (and counting!) in support of the Y’s mission to build healthier, stronger communities. This amazing milestone wouldn’t be possible without you. Every day, we watch that number grow, and it’s a direct reflection of your commitment and heart.

A special shout out to everyone across Simcoe, Muskoka, and Parry Sound who joined the fun and helped fuel the momentum: through peer-to-peer fundraising, lively childcare activities, themed events at our health and fitness centers, pickleball tournaments, rubber duck races, the Y Ride cycleathon, and so much more!

With your support, we’re not just reaching goals, we’re creating lasting change, year after year.

To everyone who participated, donated, and cheered us on: thank you. Your kindness, energy, and community spirit continue to inspire us all.
