MANITOWOC, WI — The Manitowoc-Two Rivers YMCA is grateful to announce a generous $5,000 matching gift from Bank First, giving community members a powerful opportunity to make their support go twice as far.
 
For a limited time, every gift to the YMCA’s Annual Campaign will be matched, dollar for dollar, up to $5,000. Bank First’s generosity reflects a meaningful investment in the YMCA and in the children, families, older adults, and neighbors who rely on the Y every day.
 
At the Manitowoc-Two Rivers YMCA, donor support does real work in the lives of real people. It helps a child have a safe, encouraging place to go before and after school. It helps a working family access child care they can count on. It helps an older adult stay active, connected, and engaged. It helps ensure that someone facing cancer, Parkinson’s, or another major health challenge can find support, strength, and community through programs like LiveStrong and Rock Steady Boxing.
 
Gifts to the Annual Campaign also make Membership for All possible, helping ensure that financial hardship does not keep individuals and families from belonging at the Y. In a community where needs are real and resources matter, donor support helps keep the Y accessible, welcoming, and responsive to people from all walks of life.
 
This matching gift from Bank First creates an especially meaningful moment to give. Every donation made during the match will have double the impact, helping the YMCA continue marching toward its Annual Campaign goal and strengthening the community along the way.
 
Community members who would like to make a matched gift can donate online at mtrymca.org/give, via mail to Manitowoc-Two Rivers YMCA, or they can drop off their donation at the front desk.
