We bring families closer together, encourage good health and foster connections through fitness, sports, fun and shared interests. As a result, over 5000 people in our community may receive 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, families struggle with work/life balance and individuals search for personal fulfillment and socialization. We typically provide a variety of classes, sports leagues, instruction, weight loss programs and wellness activities, including swimming, to ensure members can maintain an effective lifestyle. We opened a new state-of-the-art fitness center in 2022. Our programs are accessible, affordable and open to all faiths, backgrounds, abilities and income levels. In 2023, we provided $114,000 in financial assistance to people who otherwise may not have been able to afford to participate. Additionally, approximately 27% of our members are active older adults and we provide opportunities for senior members to socialize, improve their physical fitness to be able to lead more active and productive lives in retirement. 73% of our seniors in 2023 were on a no-cost or low cost insurance plan and 26% receive senior discounts subsidized by our membership and donors. 952415 14458 876769 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 is 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 before and after school care, summer camp, youth sports, youth swim programs, and other youth activities offer a range of experiences that enrich cognitive, social, physical and emotional growth. Our Before and After School programs provided over 180 children in two towns with opportunities to play, socialize and learn with their classmates in a safe and fun environment which enables parents to work with peace of mind that their children are well cared for. We recognize that there is a lack of affordable day care in our area for our community's youngest children. In 2023 we began a new preschool program for before and after school care as a valuable day care option for working parents and we are actively looking for opportunities to expand childcare services. The YMCA believes that camping significantly contributes to the healthy growth of children by teaching them independence, decision-making, creativity and important social skills. Day camp has also become a primary source of childcare for working parents during the summer months and was there was a critical need to get kids back to play and socialization. In 2023 we created an award winning summer enrichment program combining camp fun with an educational component to serve children who needed some extra support without the stigma of "summer school". Drowning is the second leading cause of death in children. We are committed to ensuring that the kids who live in our shoreline communities have the basic safety and swim skills to be safe around and within the water. In 2023 we provided over 1600 swim lessons to close to 800 children. In 2023 we also operated our competitive swim team comprised of over 60 young athletes to allow them to learn strokes, develop relationships and be part of a team. 33991 0 1710 SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY Our YMCA believes in giving back and supporting our neighbors. We have been listening and responding to our community's most critical social needs. YMCA programs, such as the YMCA Community Garden where all produce is delivered to local food pantry, teaching CPR, First Aid and Life Saving classes to our community, Senior Forums, Blood Drives and community group access to our facility are examples of how we deliver training, resources and support that empower our neighbors to effect change, bridge gaps and overcome obstacles. We engage YMCA members, participants and volunteers in activities that strengthen our community and pave the way for future generations to thrive. 2678755 true true false true false false false true false true false false false false false true false false false false false false false true false false false true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false true 15 0 true 133 true false false false false false true true false false false false false false X 16 15 false false false false false false false true false false true true true true true true true false false X X DEBORAH QUINN 8603999622 201 SPENCER PLAINS ROAD WESTBROOK CT 064980694 Ethan Weiner President 4.0 X X 0 0 0 Melissa Ozols Secretary 4.0 X X 0 0 0 Michael DeBlieux Treasurer 2.0 X X 0 0 0 Robert Merrick Vice President 4.0 X X 0 0 0 Barbara Slobin 1.0 X 0 0 0 Candace Fuchs 1.0 X 0 0 0 David Brown 1.0 X 0 0 0 Jacquelyn Waddock 1.0 X 0 0 0 James Spallone 1.0 X 0 0 0 John Gamble 1.0 X 0 0 0 Kathy Bazinet 1.0 X 0 0 0 Ken Biega 2.0 X 0 0 0 Leonard Goldberg 1.0 X 0 0 0 Lisa LeMonte 1.0 X 0 0 0 Richard Scierka 1.0 X 0 0 0 Rita Christopher 1.0 X 0 0 0 Tony Sharillo CEO 50.0 X 117545 0 14205 117545 0 14205 1 false false false Controlled Air 21 Thompson Road Branford CT 06405 HVAC Repair & Install 159154 1 0 0 62438 0 148231 164864 140 375533 Healthy Living 1871636 1871636 Youth Development 876769 876769 Social Responsibility 1710 1710 0 0 0 0 2750115 31084 31084 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 9560 0 0 0 9560 0 9560 0 0 9560 151 0 0 151 0 151 151 10664 62438 15414 -4750 -4750 0 0 479 223 256 256 Other revenue 900099 1222 1222 Proceeds from Insurance claim 900099 4288 4288 0 0 0 0 5510 3167459 2750115 0 41811 0 0 128334 128334 0 0 0 0 134330 108205 13433 12692 0 0 0 0 1317851 1202092 83569 32190 24938 10283 14655 0 53336 26244 25635 1457 109177 98727 7058 3392 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 40530 24752 14939 839 433 433 0 0 0 0 0 0 39470 37435 291 1744 49180 44894 2868 1418 18933 10428 8241 264 50276 0 50276 0 0 0 0 0 257779 255291 1218 1270 14860 14860 0 0 0 0 0 0 9043 5322 3689 32 31009 30699 155 155 43368 40332 434 2602 332967 329637 1665 1665 104688 103646 521 521 PROGRAM, JANITORIAL AND PROGRAM SUPPLIES 123747 123207 240 300 BANK CARD PROCESSING 59053 54919 591 3543 PROFESSIONAL FEES AND DUES 2578 0 2578 0 BAD DEBTS 29448 29448 0 0 49498 0 49498 0 3024826 2678755 281987 64084 450624 470330 1356029 1703549 530373 284227 13091 25965 0 0 0 0 474 250 26459 29573 8612334 4843106 3807004 3769228 2650 2937 0 0 19253 13304 15024 19139 6220981 6318502 44598 44703 0 0 81993 65985 0 0 8727 13941 0 0 1171448 1142974 19253 13304 0 0 1326019 1280907 3397460 3652967 1497502 1384628 0 0 0 0 0 0 4894962 5037595 6220981 6318502 142633 0 0 0 0 0 X false true X true false X 858475 463195 2580961 333641 375533 4611805 2474931 1309641 1442218 2187889 2750115 10164794 0 0 0 3333406 1772836 4023179 2521530 3125648 14776599 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 14776599 6131 4637 4332 4026 31235 50361 0 6131 4637 4332 4026 31235 50361 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3339537 1777473 4027511 2525556 3156883 14826960 0.9966 0.9987 0 0.0 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED false false false false false true 433 true 0 false false 433 false Schedule C, Part II-B, Line 1f Alliance of YMCAs The Valley Shore YMCA participates in an alliance of YMCA associations within our state.
