Annual Campaign

The Y Guides Annual Campaign ensures
everyone can participate in the program they love, regardless of ability to pay, with 100% of funds reinvested in the Y Guides community.

A campaign to change lives- Forever Strong!

By donating with your Crew, you teach your child the power of giving back while supporting children and adults who need the Y most. Y Guides' 2025 goal is to raise $100,000 during the Annual Campaign season. 

Crew Pledge: Consider making a pledge as a crew or creating a classy page. Our directors and Board volunteers will be out at Fall Outing to assist with making your pledge and filling out your pledge card. 

Individuals: If you would like to give as an individual, not a Crew, visit our main donation website. Be sure to select Y Guides from the drop-down menu.

Case for giving

Your funds can impact more than just the Y Guides program. Learn more about our case for giving here. Our work is focused in the following four areas:

  • Accessibility
  • Sustainability
  • Program Quality

Together, we are a part of a strong community.

Your Crew will have an opportunity during Fall Outing at Camp Kanata to complete your pledge and pick up your Annual Campaign patches. After making your pledge at Fall Outing, your Crew will be billed in February for their pledge and the gifted amount will be due by the end of the Y Guides calendar year in May. 

Crews that pledge $500 or more will also receive the Golden Feather Society patch.

Prize Lottery

To add a little Y Guides spirit into the campaign, we have a prize lottery. Any Crew that donates will be entered into a prize drawing that includes:

  • Specialized Patches for you and your Crew
  • Y Guides Swag for your Crew
