WELCOME TO ALL

The John Roger's Memorial Scholarship

THE ESSENCE OF THE Y

With a commitment to nurturing the potential of kids, promoting healthy living and fostering a sense of social responsibility, the Berkshire Family YMCA ensures that every individual has access to the essentials needed to learn, grow and thrive.

EVERYONE IS WELCOME

The YMCA welcomes all who wish to participate and believes that no one should be denied access to the Y based on their ability to pay. Through The John Roger's Memorial Scholarship program, the YMCA provides assistance to youth, adults and families based on individual needs and circumstances.

COMMITTED TO OUR COMMUNITY

Determining assistance amounts is handled by the YMCA in a fair and consistent manner.  Every YMCA member receives the same membership benefits, regardless of whether or not they receive a scholarship. YMCA members can feel confident knowing they are a part of an organization that cares greatly for the well-being of all people, and is committed to youth development, healthy living and social responsibility.
