Income-Based Membership
Income Shouldn't Be a Barrier
Don't let income stand in the way of a healthier you! With our income-based memberships, you can have all the benefits of being a YMCA member at a price you can afford.
No matter what type of membership you choose, we offer financial assistance to everyone who qualifies. Using our Income-Based Rate Scale, your monthly rate may be reduced based on your annual income. Financial assistance is available for individuals earning less than $50,000 per household per year and families earning less than $75,000 per household per year.
These discounts also apply to programs* like youth sports, child care, camp and more!
*Discounts on programs may not be immediately available, and can take up to 48 business hours to process.
*During any period of your membership, you may be asked to provide proof of income to keep your adjusted rate. But let's get your healthy journey started now; we'll deal with the paperwork later!
**Attention--If you are a returning member with an existing account with us, please follow the steps outlined in this how-to video.**
