You Can Change a Teen's Summer

For many Chicago teenagers, summer is the most vulnerable season of the year. School structures disappear, safe spaces shrink, and opportunities for connection and mentorship feel out of reach.  

At the Y, we believe that every young person deserves a place to grow, thrive, and discover their potential, regardless of their zip code or family income.  

That is why we are excited to launch "Get Summer". With your partnership, we're opening our doors to teens across Chicago, offering complimentary memberships at all seven of our locations - no matter if they're new to the Y or already part of our community. No fees. No barriers. Just open doors.  

But we need your help. With your support, we can ensure that thousands of teens have access to thrive this summer. For just $30, you can sponsor a teen's membership for one month, providing access to our pools, fitness centers, courts, fields, and more.
