Your community needs your help.  For more than 130 years, the Old Colony YMCA has helped the community through a myriad of health and social services programs. Last year, the Old Colony YMCA served more than 144,000 individuals across its network of programs and provided more than $10 million in aid to the community.  While impressive, the work we did this past year is not nearly as important as the work we are doing today.  And the work we do today won’t be nearly as important as the work we do tomorrow.
