Donate to the Y

For more than 140 years the Dubuque Community Y has embraced the Dubuque community where children, teens, adults and seniors gather to improve the health of their spirit, mind, and body.

We have stood for caring, honesty, respect, responsibility, eliminating racism and empowerment for women and youth. We have put Christian principles into practice and continually strive to meet the ever-changing needs of children, families, and communities throughout Dubuque.

Help make our community a better place through the Dubuque Community Y. Join with donors who share the belief that regardless of the challenges children, teens, and families face their unique talents can be strengthened. Your donation provides membership and program scholarships and supports advancements in new healthy living situations.

Whether through our annual Strong Kids Campaign, Domestic Violence Program Nights of Safety, or through one of our special events, the Dubuque Community Y depends on philanthropy to achieve our mission.

Your gift is greatly appreciated and full deductible as a charitable contribution.
