Your Support Changes Lives

The YMCA of Superior California has been serving the greater Sacramento region for 160 years with the mission to inspire all to a healthy life - in spirit, mind, and body. 

At the Y, children discover a safe place to learn, grow, and build life skills. Adults of all ages find opportunities to stay active and engaged through wellness programs. Together, we address critical community needs, including food insecurity, affordable childcare, and mental health support. From sports to education to wellness, the YMCA is making a lasting impact in the lives of more than 20,000 people each year.

Your support allows us to continue offering these essential services so that every individual, no matter their income or background, has access to life changing opportunities. Together we are building a stronger, healthier, and more connected community.

If you are 70½ or older, you can make a charitable gift directly from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) to the YMCA. This type of gift, known as a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD), is a smart way to support your community while reducing your taxable income.

A QCD counts toward your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) but is not subject to federal income tax, making it one of the most tax-efficient ways to give.

Contact your IRA administrator to request a Qualified Charitable Distribution to the YMCA of Superior California.
