› Our Mission at Work
Here at the Pocono Family YMCA, we believe that everyone has the potential to reach their own personal best, no matter what. Whether you want to learn to swim for the first time, drop some extra weight, train for a marathon, play pick-up basketball with your kids or simply make new friends, we truly have something for everyone. Come on in and see what we have to offer you!
The YMCA provides some financial assistance for eligible persons who have limited financial resources, based on family income and size. Confidential financial aid applications are available at the Member Service Desk. Application process takes approximately 2-3 weeks if all information is provided when form is submitted.
