How do I apply for Financial Aid?
The YMCA of Wichita Falls is a nonprofit, health and human services organization committed to helping people reach their full potential in spirit, mind and body. The Y recognizes that many of the children and families throughout our community would benefit from Y programs and services but cannot afford to participate. The Ys commitment to our community assures that financial assistance is available to those who qualify. Thanks to the generous donors of our Annual Campaign, we are able to make the Y accessible through our Financial Assistance Program.
